After Carter was diagnosed with diabetes four years ago, we have been on a mission to build the healthiest life possible. We had no knowledge of diabetes, what it is, what it meant for Carter’s health, or what it meant for our future. We knew we had to get smart about diabetes and make a plan to live a healthy life together. This book contains the information and the guidance we wish we would have had at the moment of his diagnosis and in the years that have followed. Now, four years after his diagnosis, Carter’s physician has announced that he is on track to be off of all diabetes medications before the end of this year. The information we give to you in this book, from initial signs and symptoms of diabetes, to questions to ask your physician, to the adjustments to make in your diet and exercise are valuable and they do work for those diagnosed with diabetes. If you’re ready to start building a healthier life after your diagnosis of diabetes, let’s get started!
