When a person receives a diagnosis of diabetes, he or she starts a process of adjusting and making sense of the new normal living with a chronic disease. A large part of that adjustment is figuring out how to balance diabetes with all the intricacies of a life outside of diabetes care. In Balancing Diabetes, diabetes online community blogger Kerri Sparling compiles strategies used by people with diabetes and their caregivers to bring that elusive balance into their lives. Whether adult or child, type 1 or type 2, spouse or caregiver, male or female, people in the diabetes world will find themselves in this book and be inspired by the commonality of that continuing search for balance.

Balancing Diabetes covers the topics that a person with diabetes cares about that aren’t discussed the day you are diagnosed. From the family dynamics, to college life. From exercise with diabetes, to travel preparations. From romantic relationships, to parenting. This book touches on all of these topics and more with Kerri’s usual wit, sass, and approachable writing style. I haven’t read every book on diabetes there is, but the ones I have read tend to lean heavier on medical terms and formal language and phrasing. Balancing Diabetes reads more like a conversation among friends. We know what things are supposed to be called, and we have no problem using technical terms, but when this information is presented in a casual nature, it’s easier to read and easier to connect with.
The kicker with this book is that this isn’t just Kerri’s story. While Kerri’s mother, siblings, college roommates, and husband are featured in almost every chapter, there’s also at least one, sometimes up to four or five additional perspectives from the diabetes community on the chapter’s core theme. [Full disclosure: I'm featured in one of the chapters] When Kerri first reached out to me and my fiancée to get our feedback on some questions for her chapter on relationships, it never occurred to me that she would be doing this for every chapter. Seeking out a variety of viewpoints and opinions from throughout the diabetes community to help present a well-rounded approach to each topic is a genius idea. I’m sure it could be easy to approach writing a book about your life with diabetes and keep everything in the first-person, with no outside input. “This is how I do it. The end.” But someone like Kerri would never do something like that, and that’s why she’s awesome.
