From people who came through it

  • “In 2023, that was me. A new pump I am scared to trust. That was my life. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. Keep going, even slowly.”

  • “Please be gentle with yourself, I wasn't, and it made everything harder, I pace everything now so if I do a lot Monday, tuesday is a rest day, no arguing, and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”

  • “If you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was numb feet. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back. x”

  • “Hi, you. I was in the same place nearly four years ago. I remember type 2 and the shame people put on it like it was yesterday. I'm volunteering here now. You get yourself back in pieces.”
