Needles by Andie Dominick, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Nine-year-old Andie Dominick was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. Her older sister Denise also suffered from the disease, so she was already accustomed to the required twice-daily injections and strict dietary rules. During their teenage years, the sisters grew rebellious and engaged in negligent behaviours. Denise`s recklessness and drug abuse ended her life. Andie`s own condition worsened, and at 19, she too faced mortality. Overcoming suicidal depression, she finally found the courage and hope to face her inner demons. Andie later married and transformed her life. Needles: A Memoir of Growing Up with Diabetes is her honest, healing, intensely personal story. | Needles by Andie Dominick, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
