When I was looking for the perfect song to go with this post, I found the song "Welcome to My Life" by Simple Plan. And I just HAD to use it.

Here are the lyrics...

"Welcome To My Life"

Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Do you ever wanna run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more?
Before your life is over
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding

No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

I know we have all felt this way. Whether you're the parent of child with diabetes, a person with diabetes, someone who loves a person with diabetes or none of the above.

And I chose this song because.... the only part of this song that isn't true is that someone DOES know what it's like.

That's why I blog. That's why I'm here.

Because I know. I know what it's like to live the D life. I don't have all the answers (don't I wish!). But I get it. And I know that on those days when you feel out of place, when you feel like breaking down, when you want to run away, when you scream and cry where no one can hear you, when you don't think you can take one. more. minute....

I hope you think of me. And the other D Mommy bloggers (who you can find on "speed dial" to the right or in my Other Sweet Blogs tab). And know that you are not alone in this fight.

I'll be here. Blogging. Telling you about our crazy days. Sharing the things that hurt. The difficult times. The scary moments. The things that are not working... And the wonderful days. The successes. And the victories, too.

I would be honored if you would join me on this journey!

Together we are stronger than diabetes!
