Kerri Sparling

Kerri Sparling has been living with type 1 diabetes since 1986, diagnosed at the age of seven.  She manages her diabetes and lives her life by the mantra “Diabetes doesn’t define me, but it helps explain me.” 

Kerri is an internationally recognized diabetes advocate.  She is the creator and author of Six Until Me, established in 2005 and one of the most widely-read and long running diabetes patient blogs. Kerri is also a highly-rated speaker and has presented the patient perspective to audiences around the world.  She works to raise awareness for diabetes, patient advocacy, and the influence of social media on health outcomes.  Her first book, Balancing Diabetes (Spry Publishing), looks at type 1 diabetes in the context of “real life.” Her next series of books will be published in Spring 2019.
