Diabetes Awareness Month Special Feature: A Case Study on TCOYD's Founder Dr. Steve Edelman.

For Diabetes Awareness Month, we’re covering TCOYD’s very own Dr. Steve Edelman, who’s been living, learning, and thriving, with type 1 diabetes for over five decades.

From the “dark ages” of urine testing to today’s CGMs, pumps, and automated insulin delivery systems, Dr. E has lived through every era of diabetes care—and embraced every new tool along the way. His story is proof that living well with diabetes isn’t about perfection, it’s about progress, persistence, and a positive mindset.

Dr. E’s approach to life with diabetes can be summed up in five guiding principles:

-Learn all you can. Knowledge is power, and the more you know, the more confidence you’ll have.

-Be proactive. Stick with your care plan and make adjustments when needed.

-Advocate for yourself. Stay informed about new treatments and push for what you need.

-Stay persistent. Managing diabetes takes patience and consistency.

-Keep a positive attitude. Some days will be harder than others—but forward is always the right direction.

These values became the foundation for Taking Control of Your Diabetes®, the organization Dr. E founded in 1995 to empower people living with diabetes everywhere. His 55-year journey is living proof that with curiosity, connection, and compassion, you can live a long, healthy, and fulfilling life with diabetes—and help others do the same.
