[QUOTE="Pneu, post: 194249, member: 28827"] Yes this thread is very important... One of the biggest issues we face is communicating to newly diagnosed type 1's (and 2's) is the long term damage that diabetes can cause especially if not well controlled. Being a type 1 diabetic who buried their head in the sand as a teenager and then suffered some of the consequences of poor control before I go my act together all I can say is this thread outlines exactly what can happen if you don't... It is really important that people read REAL peoples accounts of this diseases so that they can understand the full consequences of the choices they make. I can see how this thread could be upsetting or provoke some emotion.. but getting rid of the thread is just ignoring the TRUTH and that is exactly what this forum is trying to prevent.. this thread forms a vital part of peoples education.
