So this morning I realized that Tristan’s D-Anniversary is coming up soon.  In March it will be 5 years that Tristan has been living with diabetes.  While I was taking a shower I was still thinking about…. cause you know I can’t sing….. and this is what I thought about.

D= Death you will NOT cause

I = Immortal you are

A = Adamant we are

B = Brave we are

E = Empowered we are

T = Tenacious we are

E = Endurance we have

S = Successful we will be

Diabetes has been around for a long time.  But since it’s been “diagnosed” it hasn’t changed.  It hasn’t mutated or become stronger or anything.  On the other hand we have found ways to fight back.  We have become better and more efficient.  Diabetes’ got nothing on us…. oh well ya except the fact that it’s incurable!  :)  So the only power that it has is the fact that we can’t cure it.  Big power I know.  But I vote that from now on we refer to it as DABETES!  Let’s remove that immortal part!

What say you ladies and gentlemen of the jury?
