[QUOTE="angelicbaby, post: 714962, member: 120062"] Regrettably you appear to be the type of character who ASSUMES a lung cancer patient has smoked 20 a day to create the cancer - there are, I believe just as many patients who have never smoked a day in their life. Whatever language you choose to use, it is offensive to say someone has brought a condition on themselves - in the case of diabetes there are so many factors involved no one can say what caused it - only that there are certain "triggers" that may have contributed. The majority of newly diagnosed diabetics are over weight, however half the population is overweight. Not all of them will develop diabetes. [/QUOTE]
