My name is Sarah and I have Type 1 Diabetes. I was diagnosed at 4, three months after my birthday. I was on shot therapy from age 4 until 16, then I started on insulin pumps. I currently use an Animas OneTouch Ping insulin pump to deliver my insulin and, along with 8-12 fingerpokes a day, I use a Dexcom SevenPLUS CGM to help monitor my blood sugars 24/7.

I am an insurance agent for South Carolina, a part-time photographer, a diabetes advisor to some blog sites, and the owner of my own diabetes blog site, www.sugabetic.com.
My blog/user name, "Sugabetic", comes from being in the south. Here, you don't have diabetes, you got "tha Suga".

I am excited to be a part of this community and I look forward to sharing my ideas with you guys for living well.

In the meantime, come vist my blog homepage at www.sugabetic.com!
