I have had many challenges in my life. My Challenges have had to do with gymnastics, tumbling, and fccla. I have always been able to figure out all of the challenges someway. Now I have a new challenge I cannot figure out. In Novemeber I was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes, aka..type one diabetes. It has been so hard to handle it and gymnastics. I haven't told much people, because I want to be know as a good gymnast or tumbler and not as the girl who has diabetes. I recently went to a meet and as soon as I was about to compete my sugar dropped. So I had to go get get my testing supplies and take my sugar then go eat and then put on my pump for a few minutes and I didn't know what to tell everyone. How do I start telling people that I am a diabetic now? And does anyone know how I can handle my diabetes at competitons and while at practice? It's really upsetting me.
