Hi there!
My name is Siff, and I'm from Copenhagen in Denmark.
I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2012, when I was 16 years old.
I am still not sure how to live a normal life with this disease, but I try my best!
After losing 20 pounds and drinking about 5 litres of water every day for 2 months, my mum finally forced me to see a doctor. My blood sugar was so high the machine could not read it, so I was sent straight to hospital (without any lunch :-( )
Having to deal with a suicide in the family shortly after didn't make it any easier.
I just wanted to share my story with every one out there to let you know, that YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU WANT - even with an autoimmune disease! I had to figure that one out myself, and I wish someone had been there to tell me a little earlier. So there you go!
Together we are strong!
Copenhagen, Denmark
