I have made this page for me to write letters to you viewers and show that even though I'm a diabetic I'm just like a regular teen. And you can too. I hope you enjoy.

Hello, I'm so sorry I haven't typed up a letter in over a month. This is probably the first summer that I've been actually busy. About two weeks ago I went to beach with my family. It was fun, but on Tuesday night my mom got really low blood sugar and wouldn't take any sugar. So we had to get the paramedics and an ambulance. Luckily, it was about 12 midnight so many people in the hotel were asleep. Also the paramedice took care of my mom in the room so she didn't have to go to the hospital. When her blood sugar came up she felt so embarressed. She kept apologizing to my family and I. The reason she got low blood sugar was because of the walking that we did around the beach and her basal rate needed to be changed on her insulin pump. She's okay now of course and we tease her about it a lot. For me I haven't had any blood sugar issues, just a few high blood sugars but that's about it. Last week I went to a sleep-away camp and had brought this big bag of all my diabetes supplies. It was pretty funny. Also I got a job this week which I'm happy about. I have been looking for a job this whole summer. One of the managers had to sit down and talk to me about my diabetes and make sure that I have it under control. So that's been my summer. :) I hope yours is going well too.
Take care,
Ariel

Hello, long time since I've typed up a letter. I hope that your summer is going well, unless your still in school. I'm in school till the 29th of June. My school district decided to go on strike and now we are making the days up. My bloodsugars have been good recently, but I don't have a doctor appointment till August or September. Besides that nothing exciting is happening. I hope you have a great week!
Take care,

Hello, I know its been over a month since I've typed up a letter. I hope you had a great Easter. I hope that you have fun this summer. I'm excited for summer but school doesn't end till June 29 for us this year, because the teachers at my school went on strike. It's kind of unfair I think, and also theres no air conditioning in my school. So...it's going to be an interesting end of the school year. Besides that, I hope that your diabetes is well under control. My bloodsugars have been pretty good these past couple of weeks. Well I gotta go, and I promise I won't wait so long to type up another letter. Have a wonderful day!
Take care,
Ariel

Hello, been a long time since I have typed up a letter here. I hope you are having nice day, and I hope your diabetes is doing well. I've been busy this month, but otherwise good. My bloodsugars have been really good lately. They had been a little high the past couple of months. Besides that I don't have much diabetes news, but I'll keep you updated. I hope you have a great day!
Take care,

Hello, hope your new year is going well. Last week I went to my diabetes appoinment and my A1C was 7.9, which is high for me. My bloodsugar's have been high recently during the night and in the morning. I think I have to change my basal rate on my insulin pump. Besides that, not much in the diabetes department. We recently got a lot, and I mean a lot of snow. We got all together over 2 feet of snow, which is a new record for the area I live in. We were out of school for about a week. I hope that wherever you live that the weather is good and I hope you had a good Valentine's Day.
Take care,

Hello, I hope your New Year's is starting off to a good start. I also hope that your diabetes is under control, I have my endocrine appointment next week. I think that my A1C is pretty good I'm not sure. Besides that, at my school we're starting to pick courses for next years classes. That's about what's going on with me.
Hope you have a wondeful day!

Hello again, happy new year. Now that everything is back to normal I thought it would be good time to write to you. I changed the layout page on the web site and added a new page called "Positive Diabetes". On that page I typed up ways that diabetes can be positive only if you are positive about it. That's mostly all that has changed about the web site. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Take care,

And if you are new well I hope you like the website. I haven't done much to the website in awhile so I thought a new year a new start. Again Happy New Year!

Hiya! I'm trying a different word because the last 6-7 posts have "Hello, hope you are doing good". Anyway....I had my diabetic appointment last week and my A1C was 7.4 (yay!). I hope your diabetes is going good (if you have diabetes). The auditions for the play went well but I didn't get a callback. My friend did though, which is good. Also, I'm having trouble figuring what else to put on this web site. So if you have any ideas you could e-mail me them, if you want. Besides that I hope you have a wonderful week.
Take care,

Hello, hope your having a good day. I can't believe it's November already. Where I live it's starting to get a little chilly. I hope your Halloween went well if you celebrate. I had fun trick-or-treating with my friends and sister. And for all you people that love to be in theater and act I'm auditioning for my school play this week. I'm really nervous because you have to sing a song and I don't have the best voice. But the rest of my friends are auditioning so I audition too. Besides all that I hope your diabetes is going well. And if it isn't thats fine, you can fix it don't worry. My doctors appointment is this week and I hope my A1C is good. If not that's fine I'll just fix it. I hope you have a wonderful week.
Take care,
Ariel

Hello, hope your doing good. I know I haven't typed anything in awhile I've been busy a little bit. I can't believe Halloween is coming up next week. I'm going to be a silent mime. Which will be hard for me because I always am talking. School's good, hope it's good for you too, unless you don't go to school. I haven't been doing much with the ADA but I will be going to a Safe at School event next week by the ADA. Hope you have good day!

Hello, sorry I haven't posted anything recently. I've been really busy with school. I hope you are having a good time at school for all of you that still go to school. Next week I'm going to the Diabetes Walk in my area. My family and my friends are going so it will be good. I'm not doing much for the ADA right now just because it's the end of summer and everyone is getting things ready. Besides that I hope you have a wonderful day!
Take care.

Hello, hope you have been good. I can't believe school is starting soon. I kind of want to go back but then I don't. Anyway I went to Six Flags last Tuesday and it was really fun. I didn't go on some of the rollercoaters because they were really high. It was really nice out that day unlike today which is really rainy and high humidity.
