Story

Hi my names Aaron smith

I’ve been type 1 diabetic for almost 3 years now

My story starts out in Australia Being diagnosed the furthest place away from immediate family and calling them up at 2am English time letting them know I’ve just become diabetic

The shock was unreal I didn’t want to believe it but I pushed through and listened and the nurses where so helpful and kind as I was by myself in this massive hospital

Family where very supportive but they knew I’d cope as my sister is also type 1 diabetic so I had a better understanding compared to many others

I’ve always wanted to do something that will inspire the younger generation to say we have no limits and we can do anything we put our minds to

So I’ll appreciate any donation as you’ll be motivating me and helping this amazing charity that contributes so much to help change the lives of many diabetics

Thank you for reading
