More About Me

 

So what else can I tell you about my life that might be interesting…my favourite colour is blue, I love candy and sweets (which really sucks now) and when I am bored I like to hang out with my friends. I am a competitive dancer which keeps me busy. I spend 6 days a week at my dance studio taking classes and rehearsing for competitions. I am in grade 8 and currently attending my 10^th school. I know that sounds crazy but my dad played in the NHL and we moved around a lot. Both of my brothers play hockey (shocking I know) so I spend a lot of time at the rink, which I hate.

 

I was literally a healthy, happy kid until one day it seemed like I had the flu and I woke up in this crazy world of blood glucose testing and insulin shots. At first it felt like a bad dream and now it feels like a bad dream!

 

I know that it could always be worse, which is what gets me through every day but it still really SUCKS. I want to thank my team of doctors at Cheo as well as my family and friends for their ongoing support.
