About Us

More Than a Website. A Lifetime of Experience.

My name is Christopher Berry, and I have lived with Type 1 Diabetes for nearly my entire life. Diagnosed at the age of four, I don’t remember a world without finger sticks, insulin ratios, and the constant mental math that comes with managing this condition.

In September 2007, I founded DiabeticLive.com. At the time, the digital landscape for diabetes support was fragmented. I wanted to build a space where the clinical met the personal—a place where we could talk about the grit and reality of living with an autoimmune disease.

A New Chapter: Resilience and Recovery

The journey hasn’t been easy. Recently, my battle with diabetes took me through the life-altering experience of a kidney transplant. Navigating the complexities of organ failure and the road to recovery has given me a profound new perspective on health, healthcare systems, and the sheer power of the human spirit.

DiabeticLive is no longer just a hobby or a publication; it is my legacy and my mission to help others navigate their own “Diabetic Live” with dignity and information.

The Person Behind the Platform

While my heart is in the diabetes community, my mind is rooted in the world of digital strategy. I believe that for life-saving information to reach those who need it, it must be found.

Since October 2010, I have served as a Digital Marketing Consultant at Join Me Here Inc., helping brands navigate the complex world of online visibility. My passion for the outdoors and the restorative power of nature is also documented at ClearLanding.com, an outdoor blog I founded in October 2010.

I am a firm believer that our struggles don’t define us, they refine our purpose.
