Life with Necrobiosis Lipoidica at 19

I am a 19 female I live in Memphis Tn and I have Necrobiosis lipoidica and I have Type 1 diabetes. It is really painful but I still live my day to day life I am in school to be a MA (Medical Assistant) I have a 2 year old little boy and I am married. I live with all this everyday. If you are told you have this, yes it hurts a lot. But you can't let it get you down, you can live with it. I was someone who wore shorts and skirts all the time. But when I first got this I did not. I did not want to show anyone my legs, but now I wear all that again. I am not going to hide who I am because of it.
