Amazon 5 star review: Beyond Burnout is beyond brilliant

I just finished reading Beyond Burnout and have tears in my eyes. It's as much a love letter to the authors family and medical support team as it is an evidence based piece of guidance. So easy to read, it's helpful for those with or supporting people with Type 1 diabetes.

Amazon 5 star review: Good book on the topic

This is a good book for anyone suffering from diabetes. I only have type two unlike the author who as type 1 but I still suffer from burnout about the disease. Not that I can compare with what he has to go though. This book is good encouragement and practical guide. It has some light relief with some of the diagrams.

Hello, I'm Philip Hall

When I was first diagnosed with type 1 diabetes back in London over three decades ago, the world looked very different.

Blood glucose meters demanded large drops of blood and long waits for results. Insulin was limited to syringes, and continuous glucose monitoring was only a distant dream.

Living through that evolution has taught me more than how technology can change diabetes care. It has taught me how heavy the daily burden can feel, how resilience is built one choice at a time, and how important it is to have support along the way.

I created Smart Diabetes Living to offer the kind of support I wish I’d had earlier in my journey. By sharing my experiences with both the challenges and the breakthroughs, my hope is to make life a little easier for others living with diabetes and for the people who care for them... one book at a time!
