Synopsis

Sarah Harding has been a type 1 diabetic since 1993. She has lived a full life, and her writing describes how she has managed to balance having a family, a fulfilling career, travel to all corners of the world, and an active lifestyle – in short to enjoy life to the full – while handling the condition’s demands.

Managing type 1 diabetes involves paying close attention to the many factors that together result in blood glucose control. They include insulin, food, activities, underlying health and fitness, and stress, but extend to a multitude of other nuances. Control is often elusive, because in real life, every day is different.

In Invisible Impacts Sarah describes how life changed for her when she was diagnosed, and how she grappled with the specific challenges of life over her first decade with the condition. She goes deep into the practical and emotional impacts that were profoundly life changing.

Sarah hopes that through sharing her life experience she will better equip other diabetics, and those around them, to navigate life with the condition, and help them feel a greater sense of enablement and empowerment.
