Dee Brown
At the age of 21 was when Dee was first diagnosed with Type One Diabetes. Not knowing anything at the time about the disease, it hit her like A TON of bricks. Learning how to give herself needles five to six times per day left her scared to death as she was a newly wed and expecting her first child, AND enrolled in a full time undergrad schedule all while this happened. To say life completely changed for her is an understatement. Dee has learned SO much about how to better control her sugars with exercise, food choices, praying, fasting, and seeking God in all she does first and foremost. She has made a commitment to turn her mess into a miracle by becoming a Certified Diabetic Fitness coach, a Golf Fitness Trainer (yes I am an avid golfer) and a Certified TRX Trainer. Dee lives by the mantra, if there is no positive benefit to my mind body or spirit, I won’t indulge in it.
