In Three Words: Contest Winners

We have winners!

Yes, that's right. I said "winners," as in plural! Three to be exact. It seemed only right that a contest revolving around the number three should have three winners.

So we have one grand prize winner and two runners-up. (Or is that runner-ups? I had to check. Both are correct, it seems. I like runners-up better.)

Before I announce the winners and their prizes, I want to thank all who entered the contest. Many, many thanks! I appreciated your participation. I was blown away by the entries. Such creativity and variety! I enjoyed reading them.

Here are the entries, which, in three words, describe life with diabetes, as they were posted and in the order in which they were posted.
