Who I am & What Im about

My name is Jasmine Henry. I am recently attending Henderson State University majoring in leisure service. In my spare time I love too be with my family, race cars, hang with my friends and ride horses. Yes, some may call me a country girl but I love it. Dealing with diabetes is extremely hard and time consuming. It becomes even harder when you are young. I have been dealing with this disease 12 years and counting. I am the only one in my immediate family that has this disease. To be successful with diabetes takes a lot. This means I have to check my blood sugar before every meal and when I feel different. I take insulin shots every time I eat a snack or meal.

I have been to numerous amount of doctors just to find one that is willing to help keep everything under control. I have recently found a doctor in hot springs, Arkansas that has almost got everything on a good path. Even though it is taking a little more time this may help me live a longer life in the future. I send this doctor my blood sugar readings throughout the week so that he can adjust my insulin if needed. Having diabetes makes me work harder on being healthy as far exercising and eating right. With those two you can keep almost everything else in order.
