When you choose A1C Audrey, you’re supporting diabetes awareness and education—one bottle at a time.
My name is Audrey, and I’m a Junior Theatre Education major at Emerson College. In September 2025, at the age of 20, I was unexpectedly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Overnight, my life was flipped upside down, and I had no idea how to navigate such a massive change.
Food quickly became one of my biggest fears. I found myself eating the same meals over and over again, afraid to try anything new because I didn’t know what my blood sugar would do. Every meal meant an insulin shot, and with that came its own physical and emotional challenges.
Everything began to change in November, when I was fortunate enough to get an insulin pump. I now wear two medical devices 24/7—a CGM that tracks my blood sugar and a pump that delivers insulin. While it took time to adjust, the pump gave me something I hadn’t felt in months: confidence.
With that confidence came freedom. I started trying new foods again. I began trusting my body. And little by little, I started trusting myself.
Every day, I grow more confident in my diagnosis, and I am endlessly grateful for my incredible medical team and my unwavering support system. Type 1 diabetes will be with me for the rest of my life—but instead of fighting it, I chose to make peace with it.
So instead of being its enemy, I became its friend.
Stay Jawesome. 💙
