I'm walking in Bendigo to turn type one into type none!
I'm joining the world's largest walk for a future without type 1 diabetes (T1D) at Lake Weeroona on Sunday 16 March 2025!
Why? To help fund life-changing research aimed at improving lives and curing T1D.
Type 1 diabetes can strike anyone at any time, and 8 Australians are diagnosed every day. Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy.
I found out I was Type 1, 2 years ago at the age of 51, shortly after my daughter at the age of 11 was diagnosed with the same condition.
I had been quite ill before and had lost a lot of weight, but now with the condition under control I am feeling fit and healthy. However, it is a struggle to stay on top of the blood sugars and the required injections.
Please support my walk today.
