Being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes means that you will have to do a lot of new things to take care of yourself that other kids don't have to do. It might feel like a lot to learn at first, and it is normal to make mistakes. But your new jobs will get easier and easier, the more you do them.

Learning as much as you can about diabetes, and taking the best possible care of your body, will most likely pay off with better health and fewer complications in your future.
