Lisa's Story

My name is Lisa Lippe and I have been a diabetic for 14 years now. I was diagnosed when I was a sophomore in high school. I am 29 years old and type one strong! Each day is always a new adventure and I'm lucky to have friends, as well as my dad, as type one role models.

My father and I share a common trait, as he was diagnosed at the age of 5. We have shared many highs and lows together. Being a diabetic has not stopped me from reaching all of my goals! I have achieved my dream of being a middle school science teacher and received my master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction.
