My partner's mum told us some news last night. My partner's aunt has just returned from a trip to Australia and while she was out there, she apparently collapsed in a restaurant and it seems like she may have Type 1 diabetes (she was supposed to be seeing a diabetic nurse today), possibility her pancreas has given up. How is this possible? I thought you were born with Type 1 diabetes? can someone explain? I am Type 2. Just wondering how and why a pancreas can no longer work at all.
