My name is Pitso Molemane, and I am a “diabetes warrior” from South Africa. I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at a young age and have been living with the condition for nearly 40 years. As a journalist, I have tried to inspire and raise awareness about diabetes. In my spare time, I use media platforms to educate people about the condition. I consider myself “a living testament” to a long life with diabetes. I fight the condition daily with a healthy diet, treatment and exercise. I will not let it control my life.
