| sugar sandwiches? lol you do know that isn't the reason you have diabetes right? (unless you have type 2)
I know what your talking about Karen, before I was diagnosed the only thing I knew is that diabetics had to take shots and carry juice! Or take medication and manage their diet...
I think what bothers me the most (and I could be completely wrong in thinking this) is that I think that Type 1 diabetics have a lot harder time, with shots having to eat at certain etc. and also that with type 1 it's nothing you have done whereas type 2 is generally bought on by obesity or other things that could be prevented but I think that people (even people with type 2 diabetes) don't understand that, like after explaining to people that I have diabetes and what I have to do people will say oh yeah my grandfather has had diabetes for 2 years or something but he has better control he only takes a pill a day... |
