I‘m a diabetic.
I’ve had type 1 diabetes since I was a little child.
I didn’t get it from eating the wrong things. And, by the way, I love to play sport.
But diabetes ruled my life.
Hi. My name’s Kate.
But something good happened to me.
Now when I wake up, I’m able to control my health.
I check my blood sugar level, and put the number in my new APP along with a note of what I’ve just eaten.
My APP tells me how much insulin I need.
I don’t have to think about my diabetes. The system’s handling it for me. It’s like my own personal manager.
I can choose a different menu every day, because my APP adapts my medication every time I eat.
And I’m not alone. Millions of people are there for me, because we‘re all connected.
I can check my information from anywhere, like from my phone, my laptop, my Smart TV…
Everything’s interconnected.
Today I’m eating out with friends. We’re going to the new Thai restaurant.
My system knows me and will tell me if I need something before I go to sleep.
I’m safe.
