[QUOTE="ElenaP, post: 2638522, member: 67557"] Congratulations on your number of years. I am sorry about your eye-problem and having to give up driving. As for telling people, I find that, when I do tell, I end up wishing I hadn't. There is so much ignorance about type1 that non-diabetics cannot understand why I count carbohydrates, even when I have explained. Only a few days ago, a non-diabetic family member said that I had been brainwashed because I am always talking about healthy eating. So, it will be easier if I just decline food that I'm offered, but do not explain why. Rude as that may sound. [/QUOTE]
