#seethesigns @beyondtype1 I had 3 signs: excessive thirst, frequent urination (including wetting the bed), fruity breath; I believe there may have been others as well, such as blurry or double vision but those were the big ones. It was 1989 & I was 5 years old (going on 6) & my parents didn’t know there was something wrong. I was fortunate to have needed a physical to start kindergarten & he noticed something wasn’t right & checked my urine which was full of glucose & ketones. After that, I was in the hospital, being treated for DKA & learning about Type 1 diabetes. #worlddiabetesday https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck65TylNeGH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
