A childhood diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is devastating to an entire family. When it happens everything changes. Forever. But with better treatments in recent days this disease is no longer a death sentence like it used to be. In this book Tim takes the reader on an extensive journey through survival self-discovery and eventual triumph in the face of adversity and monumental challenges. If you have type 1 diabetes or you love somebody that does you'll find a kinship with Tim as he explores all the avenues this disease placed him upon. It's a journey that nobody would choose to embark upon but it's all about how we react and thrive during challenging times--type 1 diabetes and all.
