Diabetes. What is, how does it work, who does it effect?My friend Erin sits down with me today and we discuss what it meant for her to be in a military service academy seemingly healthy and “normal” and be diagnosed with Diabetes at age 19. I have to say I have a new found respect for folks born with this autoimmune disease and what it takes for them to maintain their health.

The Knight Show

Most of my friends did not grow up with both of their parents. That has certainly shaped us in ways that differ from what some may consider ideal or the "norm". However, it has also given us pause to look at our own relationships and take caution in finding life partners or throttle us to be fixers when we should have been looking for companionship. This conversation certainly went through many levels of life experiences and I think everyone can relate to a bit of one of our stories.
