[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 1121419, member: 44643"] [B][/B] People probably wouldn't know about cystic fibrosis or cerebral palsy, whether they were diabetic or non diabetic, that's because it's not all over the newspapers, social media, or on tv programmes. I personally have never had anything negative or nasty said to me, I was diagnosed at 31 and missed the school and college lot. My granddaughter was diagnosed at 2 1/2 yrs, she is a happy 7 year old, but some children at school make silly remarks, but her friends are 'nice' about her diabetes :) I do wonder what it will be like for her in 4/5 + years time. If any negative remarks are made, I hope she will give as good as she gets and swats them like flies :cool: [/QUOTE]
