What is it like to be an American in Britain on Valentine’s Day? Well, us American expat women living in Yorkshire are still wondering how to celebrate properly!

hey lady! i’m curious what your ‘type 1 story is’–meaning, how did you come to be diagnosed, find out, etc? good to see you are doing well.

thanks so much Karen! I really appreciate it, and coincidentally, I have moved out of the little funk I was in…
all the same, it’s nice to know that there are others out there experiencing/going through the same things… I can’t tell you how much the diabetes OC helped me the first few months after my diagnosis – just reading about other peoples’ lives with diabetes was amazing, eye-opening, and comforting all at the same time.

{{{{HUGS}}}} I wish there was something I could do to make you feel better. I wish I had an answer. But honestly, there isn’t one. It sucks sometimes. It’s so frustrating sometimes. But not ALWAYS. The rough patches will come and go. I know that doesn’t help when you are in one, but hopefully you’ll be on the other side soon. Damn diabetes. It’s hard on your first anniversary, it’s hard on your 20th anniversary . . . . . it will probably be hard on the 30th too. But remember you have friends out here who know exactly how you are feeling and are sending their support over the internet. Stay strong!

: ( I too have been aware, thinking about the anniversary of your diagnosis coming up. I so wish I could change things or make it better but I can only wish for that power, and that is so unrealistic. So, I pray daily for you and will continue to do because that is one thing I can do. I know that probably doesn’t seem like much while you are aching. On a different note, I am proud of how you have dealt with this diagnosis this past year as it is has not been easy, nor pleasant. and it is very hard and will continue to be. Love you always & forever.

hi again justin~
thanks for the cheers. i bet it will all work out when you get back, b/c i can imagine travel does a number on ya, especially with ‘us’ still adjusting to the diagnosis! but you know what? i admire how you have not let any of it stop you and from all the incredibly beautiful posts you’ve written this summer, you have made the most of it and had an awesome time! i learned a lot about just going about it like normal and to remember to keep enjoying new stuff from reading your posts on france. thank you! take care and post soon, dear.
