I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes on Feb 11, 1979 - my brother’s 6th birthday (he still hasn’t forgiven me for wrecking his party!). I’ve been a research volunteer with the DCCT and EDIC since 1984. I am a pharmacist and Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE) living in the Memphis, TN area. I am blessed with a wonderful wife and 3 terrific kids, and no diabetes complications to date. I’m eager to connect with others on this journey.
