"Children with diabetes can live full, happy, productive lives. I hope my story can stand as proof of that fact." Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age seven, Wendy Louise Novak had to create her own path in a world defined by stigma, struggle, and hope. Her only role model was her fiercely independent but secretive father, who grew up in an era when diabetes meant a difficult, and often short, life. He taught her to "follow the rules" but also follow her goals. That sense of self-reliance carried Wendy through college to a successful career and a loving marriage as she navigated the highs and lows of a condition that was still gaining acceptance. "I never wanted to be the kind of person who stayed home and worried about whether or not I could take it, and so I didn' t." A world traveler and an advocate, Wendy is now the face of the Wendy Novak Diabetes Institute, which supports groundbreaking clinical services, education, and research to ensure young people with diabetes can thrive. In this honest but uplifting account of a life well lived, Wendy shows patients and families that a diagnosis doesn't define your life.

Despina Margiori, a mother of a type one (T1) diabetic girl, writes about the life-changing condition diagnosed on her daughter at the age of eight. Just before Danai turned twelve, the family was faced with an additional challenge: celiac disease. The author describes the stages of sorrow, despair, and depression she went through before she could emerge strong again. When she did, she could be the comforting, guiding figure in the life of both her diabetic and non-diabetic daughters. Despina Margiori describes five years of facing demands on a daily basis, and how she and everyone in the family continued to enjoy the privilege of life, despite all odds. This book is meant to help those who are in a similar situation and need to hear comforting and encouraging words about a life well-lived, together with the demands of T1 diabetes and celiac disease. The author knows of many people who even hide the fact that there is a T1 diabetic in their family. She has talked to them in hospitals, in conferences, or other gatherings around the world. Despina Margiori wrote this book because she felt that it was absolutely vital for people to understand that diabetes T1 is not the result of wrongdoing. Teachers need to be alerted of T1 diabetic students and show them consideration and compassion. Doctors need to acknowledge the pain T1 diabetic families go through. Relatives, neighbors, friends or colleagues can be supportive without possessing any medical knowledge. Despina Margiori shares her experience in hope of making this world a better place for her children and for all T1 diabetics, no matter their time zone! Her personal account will make many realize that the strength one possesses is contained in a bottomless vessel. The story is not only to be read by T1 diabetics and sufferers of the celiac disease but by all who go through life ́s adversities! May this book contribute to the lessening of the discrimination and marginalization of those around the world who have to try harder than others to survive.

To summarise, I would just like to say that I hope you have enjoyed my story. I hope too that some of the events I have had to deal with will be of help to you. You might feel alone at times, but after you read this book, I hope you feel comfort in knowing that whatever you are experiencing as a diabetic is being experienced by others as well. A very big thank you to my husband, Charl, who has stood by me from the very beginning up until now. He has literally been my lifesaver on more than one occasion. I would also like to thank my two beautiful children, Charl Jnr and Carrin, for walking this very long path with me. As children, this could have been quite a traumatic event for them to have to witness, but with us educating them, they were able to deal with it and have been there to help me on so many occasions, some of which were life-threatening. My family have been and still are my rock, with all the love, care, concern, and support that they continuously show me every single day. I could never have survived for so long without them. A huge thank you too to the specialists, doctors, nurses, and diabetic educators and pathologists who have been involved with me along the way. As the patient, I felt irritable whilst lying in the various hospital beds, but I am very grateful for all the work and effort the medical staff put into taking care of me throughout the years. Diabetes will always be a part of my everyday living. I will never be free from it, but I am so fortunate to have come this far and have learnt so much about the disease. To my friends, I thank you for all your support, love, and care. To my readers, I thank you for your interest in my story, and I hope I have given you something to relate to along the way. Look after yourselves. It’s the only body you will ever have. Thank you.

The diagnosis of diabetes can at first be very overwhelming. Your mind may be filled with questions—questions about what diabetes is, how you can cope with it, and what the possible complications may be. But the truth is that if you are one of the many people who have type 2 diabetes—also called non-insulin-dependent diabetes—there are many things you can do to control your diabetes. My Doctor Says I Have a Little Diabetes was designed to help you do just that. Written in easy-to-understand language, this book begins by explaining the basics of diabetes and diabetes care. The authors define exactly what diabetes is, and dispel many common misconceptions about this disorder. Each of the remaining chapters looks at a specific aspect of diabetes care. You’ll learn how to effectively monitor your glucose level, how to follow a diet that you can live with (and enjoy!), and how to use exercise to maximize diabetes control and enhance your well-being. Still other chapters will help you master any diabetes medication you may be taking, assist you in understanding and controlling high and low blood glucose levels, and teach you to prevent complications. You’ll even learn how to handle special situations such as illness and travel. Medical researchers have discovered that good diabetes care does indeed make a difference. Let My Doctor Says I Have a Little Diabetes be your guide to living successfully with diabetes.

Finding out you suddenly have insulin dependant diabetes at the ripe young age of 27 may not sound all that exciting to most people. While everyone else in their mid 20s were out there realising their dreams, I found myself waking up to a nightmare. Not many fit, young people find themselves with an ailment to which there is no cure. You usually just, get better after a while. Despite this, life had to go on. This is the very true story of my journey. Blessed with previous life choices to be trained in healthcare as a Registered Nurse, I have spent the last few years fine tuning my Diabetes control. I work closely with the medical team in charge of me over at the Diabetes Management clinic in Tan Tock Seng Hospital to achieve my goals at this end. (Even returning as a full time Nurse during the pandemic.) Now, with all the knowledge and experience I had been graciously given the opportunity to acquire, I would like to pass it forward. As both a Nurse and as a Patient, these are my life experiences and learned knowledge. How I adapted to change, overcame this adversity, and ultimately converted that negative energy into something positive. May it provide comfort to those who are suffering in silence, and joy to those who wish to walk hand in hand with me down this relatively short but important chapter of my life.
