I thought the popular kids were the cool kids. I got caught up in that, and it was bogus. School is about finding who you are because thats more important than not being yourself.

My pick up line is: Slow down sugar, cause I’m a diabetic!

I like looking at the stars on a clear night

I think the community that you're in really can define your ability to be at peace with your circumstances.

I've fallen in love with baseball.

I had an emotional breakdown since I really had no idea what diabetes was all about. I wondered, 'why me?' Then I asked myself, 'why not me?' and realized that I might be able to help other kids with diabetes.

I think you are the best you can be when you feel free, when you feel open. So I think keeping that mentality, keeping positive, is key.
