Hi there. Diabetes.co.uk featured in the last ten minutes of the documentary. The people being interviewed were members of staff, three of which have Type 1, and the other being myself. The goal of having these members of staff interviewed was to share their own personal experiences of how Diabetes doesn't hold them back.Any idea why the interviewees in the section about diabetes.co.uk were all Type 1's (or at least that's what they appeared to be) especially odd after the first half of the program was all about Type 2.. This was never made clear and there was lots of talk about "Diabetes" without any specifics.
Maybe I should ask @CaptainEarle
What we did show during our ten minutes was about the forum being there for people. We highlighted how people can still live a happy life with Diabetes and it is not all doom and gloom. We wanted to put the message across that the forum is here for everyone across the world and how much we admire and respect our members. Our members are some of the strongest people we come across every day and we wanted to let other people out there know that if they need help, our members and staff are here to help. I hope that our ten minutes on TV managed to put across this message to people out there who need a helping hand.
Thank you to all the members out there who have helped and continue to help others affected by Diabetes. Much love to you all. ♥
