Sarah

Sarah, 12 - Virginia USA
Hi people!
I am Sarah. I like being called by Nicki, which comes from my middle name. I am really crazy about every other day. I love cats, pink, flowers, friends, and books. I also like swimming, reading, playing with friends, and doing strange things. I don't think that I will ever get an insulin pump or surgery to help me with diabetes. I think that I am pretty good at controlling my diabetes. I am always happy! I have 2 cats, 2 brothers, and I used to have a dog. I found out I had diabetes on January 25, 2012. Which is 20 days after my birthday. I hope you become my penpal!
