No, my dad was more interested in the part of plan that talked about me not losing credit if I miss school because of my diabetes. *sighs* It's almost as if my parents don't care. Which I know isn't the case, but they really don't feel that pursuing this will do anything.

As for the teacher, they are insulin-dependent and they understand where I am coming from. The teacher has helped me a great deal, they have encourged me to take some action within the school just myself. Since I work in the office, I talk to the principals everyday and have gotten them to understand where I'm coming from, and they have let me leave class early to go to the nurse, and they make sure that I get lunch, even if I have to eat it in the office. Also we are discussing the chance of me carrying my mointor with me so I can test, just not my insulin pen.

I guess once they met me, and got to know me, they found out I wasn't going to kill someone with my diabetic supplies.
