Hi, my name is Alban Orsini and I have diabetes. A successful career, international business trips, financial stability are signs of a seemingly successful person who has achieved a lot by the age of 30. But, alas, they cannot guarantee a healthy life. In May 2012, after a difficult period, Alban Orsini was urgently hospitalized. The diagnosis cannot be appealed: he is diabetic. After numerous trials, the author not only confronts the disease, tames it, daily debunking existing prejudices, but also decides to describe his process of accepting the disease. “Thank you, diabetes!” is not a clinical monograph by a specialist, but an honest story of a person who once found out his diagnosis and now must change his entire habitual way of life. This is a look from the other side - from the patient's side - at the most difficult problems of medicine. The book is written in an original form, each episode is documented, dramatized and sometimes brought to the point of absurdity - only humor will help us cope with the disease and accept it!
