Hi ,I'm chloe and I'm 14 years old. I would just like to tell you something that I experience a lot.
Well whenever I go to town or where ever out in public ,and I go low and sit down (on the floor if no seats around) I always seem to get people walking past giving me dirty look and just yesterday I had someone come to me and ask what was wrong so I explained the situation ,that I felt low and that I was doing my blood levels and the reply I had from him shocked me ,he said 'diabetes is only brought on by people who can't look after themselves and you deserve it'!! I was horrified by it.
I understand people don't understand but to make someone feel so down about themselves is wrong !!
