When I was diagnosed, my nurse educator asked me how I felt about it. I said that I was ashamed and felt guilty. She told me there's no reason to feel that way, it's all about genetics. I know what she said is somewhat true, but I am still ashamed. Every time I look/listen to the media, they are always talking about what a burden fat people are because of the diabetes and all. I just feel like a burden.
