The 10th to the 16th of June is Diabetes Week. My little boy is a T1 Diabetic and also autistic. I wrote a poem about mothering a child with diabetes for last year’s Diabetes Day and I have reworked it a wee bit today. It is a bit long for Instagram, so please follow the link in my profile to my blog, . liezel. . . . . #poetry #diabetes #seediabetesdifferently #diabetesawareness #t1diabetes #paediatricdiabetes #diabetescommunity #poetryporn #spilledink #spilledthoughts #words #wordsmith #liezelgraham #instapoetrygram #motheringdiabetes #autoimmunedisease
