Living with type 1 diabetes

I'm a 41 year old single mom who was recently diagnosed in the last 18 months with type 1 diabetes. I hadn't been feeling good for about 6 months or so. I passed out one day and didn't wake up for 24 hours. After that I went to the hospital where tests were run and my sugar was well over 600. I thought diabetes was a death sentence because of all the shots I was having to take. With the flex pens I feel like I'm in control not the diabetes. I'm down to 3 shots a day compared to almost 7 I started out on. Life is a blessing so let's find a cure for type 1 diabetes!
