About Me — Diabetesknow

Real-life diabetic experiences from a type 1 diabetic

My name is Kenny and I’m a type 1 diabetic for over 25 years. I currently use a Tandem t:slim X2 insulin pump for my diabetes management.

• I’m from Staten Island, New York
• I am a bridge & tunnel maintainer at the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge
• I support dog rescues and foster dogs
• I love to share my personal diabetic experiences on my website

My Goal

When I was first diagnosed with diabetes, my goal in life was to be cured. However, since there is no cure at this time, I thought I’d do the next best thing, and help people who are newly diagnosed.
