For decades, most people have considered diabetes a minor and sometimesinconvenient condition that people learn to live with and accept. But it''s more thanthat. Diabetes is a 24/7 lifelong condition that demands control, discipline, costs,and hardships that those without diabetes don''t have. It has not received theattention it deserves because it has historically been downplayed by medicalassociations, foundations, and businesses that thrive from its existence. Later, ILearned is an account of a person beset with diabetes when a young child. For oversixty years, the author struggled with locating and placing pieces in the diabetespuzzle that never fit. Crossen dealt with the dos and don''ts in the education systemand struggled to make medication and dietary adjustments in demanding sports likeboxing, solo bicycling tours across the continent, mountain climbing, travelingalone internationally, and more. Each attempt at normalcy with diabetes set himback, but he learned, persevered, and strengthened his resolve to pursue his goal ofliving without limitations. The author''s experiences are shared without restraint.They are an honest, raw, and sometimes graphic depiction of what living withdiabetes is like for many. Though Crossen''s experiences taught him that compromiseis sometimes necessary, each setback strengthened his resolve to overcome thedisease and discover why a complete cure for diabetes has not been madeavailable.
