About the Book

Despina Margiori, a mother of a type one (T1) diabetic girl, writes about the life-changing condition diagnosed on her daughter at the age of eight. Just before Danai turned twelve, the family was faced with an additional challenge: celiac disease. The author describes the stages of sorrow, despair, and depression she went through before she could emerge strong again. When she did, she could be the comforting, guiding figure in the life of both her diabetic and non-diabetic daughters. Despina Margiori describes five years of facing demands on a daily basis, and how she and everyone in the family continued to enjoy the privilege of life, despite all odds. This book is meant to help those who are in a similar situation and need to hear comforting and encouraging words about a life well-lived, together with the demands of T1 diabetes and celiac disease. The author knows of many people who even hide the fact that there is a T1 diabetic in their family. She has talked to them in hospitals, in conferences, or other gatherings around the world. Despina Margiori wrote this book because she felt that it was absolutely vital for people to understand that diabetes T1 is not the result of wrongdoing. Teachers need to be alerted of T1 diabetic students and show them consideration and compassion. Doctors need to acknowledge the pain T1 diabetic families go through. Relatives, neighbors, friends or colleagues can be supportive without possessing any medical knowledge. Despina Margiori shares her experience in hope of making this world a better place for her children and for all T1 diabetics, no matter their time zone! Her personal account will make many realize that the strength one possesses is contained in a bottomless vessel. The story is not only to be read by T1 diabetics and sufferers of the celiac disease but by all who go through life´s adversities! May this book contribute to the lessening of the discrimination and marginalization of those around the world who have to try harder than others to survive.
