[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 1023062, member: 93179"] RR: You, since apparently we should all now be politically correct, are henceforth to be a [B]P[/B]erson [B]W[/B]ith [B]D[/B]iabetes, and no longer a diabetic. :wideyed::wideyed: It took me a bit of a search to find what it meant too.... I have to say that since how I'm described in no way changes the [B]fact[/B] that I'm [B]diabetic[/B], I don't actually give a (insert suitable rude word here) about petty political correctness - I have more important things to worry about.
