Now in paperback, this vivid and often beautifully written account of the realities of diabetes (Chicago Tribune) is essential reading for diabetics and their friends and families. Lisa Roney was diagnosed with diabetes just before her twelfth birthday. This is her candid and exquisitely written account of how the disease directly affects the choices she makes every day, in every aspect of her life, from food and exercise to career and family. What sets this apart from other testimonies about living with an illness is Roney's remarkable willingness to reveal the usually hidden emotional consequences of her affliction: erosion of her self-esteem, feelings of vulnerability, the influence on her sexual choices, and heightened awareness of mortality. Full of wisdom, humor, and practical advice, Sweet Invisible Body will be welcomed by diabetics and their friends and families who have never before had a spokesperson as articulate, honest, and insightful as Lisa Roney.

Diabetes is more than a physical disease. It is also an emotional 24/7/365 day condition. It is always on your mind. Your mind affects your body. Your body affects your mind. I have learned in my 45+ years with diabetes, that your health is determined by how you feel mentally. It is an exhausting disease. When you are feeling good about yourself, you will be more motivated to take care of your body. I am a healthy diabetic because I have lived this philosophy since I was 18 when I fought back against this disease by starting the 16th chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation in Toledo, Ohio. I have been a diabetes patient advocate because I am an impatient soul. It is time when everyone on this planet (the medical community, patients, families and the public) recognize that it is more than a disorder of body organs (which you can somewhat control) but that instead the true path must be leading (not just managing) your diabetes. Mind over matter is what matters for a healthy day and a healthy life with diabetes. I share my insights (including my odd sense of how things are) because I want this global epidemic to be seen in a new light, where despite all the distractions in trying to stay alive, we diabetics are aligned with a personal mission which is to rise above the disease in a positive way. It can be done. It has to be done. Our quality of living depends upon it. It is a solo disease where you are on a tightrope without a net below. My fellow sweet brothers and sisters--it is in your power to be empowered by diabetes, rather than be weakened by it. We are greater than our diabetes. Please join me in not just saving our lives, but more so, thriving and living our dreams by enjoying life!
