Industry Reviews

'An epic narrative of bravery and defying the many odds stacked against her. Even with the experience of 35 years of type 1 diabetes behind me, I still had much to learn from this amazing book.' 

   - Mags Hussey BSc - Living with type 1 diabetes since 1986. 


ï»ï»Kirrily begins her story as a child when freshly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, her life becomes filled with a myriad of questions. Kirrily uses her knowledge as a Credentialled Diabetes Educator and Pharmacist to explain many of the more complex issues.

Her story is at times startling, occasionally sad, but always extraordinary. Through it all shines her zest for life, her refusal to give up - yes, a stubborn streak! - and her over-arching resilience which continues to leave me in awe.

This is the story of a person who has scaled mountains, the size of which would daunt lesser mortals; has traversed the deep and dark valleys of life which the rest of us fear to imagine; and who truly knows the value of cherished friendship, and indeed, of life itself.

I hope you are able to hear the authenticity of Kirrily's voice as she tells you of her remarkable journey.
