    I need a diabetic friend

    I've been type 1 since 1990 and agree with all the above posts, it can be a lonely journey. I'm 56 too, family try to understand but I think it's hard for them to comprehend how **** I feel when that high or low happen and I just can't figure out why. Would love to join in with chats and moans!!
