Flexibility is the key to living a life that’s unlimited, especially when managing the ups and downs of diabetes. For Blanca, that means focusing on making progress every day, rather than striving for perfection.

“I have always been a woman who loves life. I am not defined by my diabetes.”

Every day with diabetes is different, as are Blanca’s afternoons with her two energetic grandsons. That’s why she works hard to follow her treatment plan as diligently as possible, so that an occasional disruption to her routine doesn’t set her back too much. She looks at each day as an opportunity to do a little better than she did the day before.
