About me

Gender Female
Occupation Coordinator

Introduction My name is Anna and I'm 21 years old (OK, 30 but who's counting?). I love snoozing, eating, black and white photography, exercising, fresh bed-sheets and the sound of rain on the roof. I love surfing and snowboarding but would love to do them both whilst standing up! I like to travel to new countries and hope to travel many more in my life time. I am also a type 1 diabetic (insulin dependent, juvenile onset, pancreatically challenged - the beast has many names). I started this blog when I made decision to go onto the insulin pump and wanted to document my experiences in the hope it will help others, whether you are living with this illness or are trying to understand what someone close to you is living with; so here goes. I'm not a professional and my words are not clinical advice, nor should they be taken as such. The reader of this blog is responsible for their own care decisions and actions. But I hope my experiences will make help you negotiate this sometimes rocky road..... If you want to get in touch about anything you read, catch me on insulin.independent@gmail.com
