[QUOTE="Fairygodmother, post: 2304225, member: 68789"] I’ve been open about it for years. It’s something people need to know, especially if they’re able to grab me a hypo-buster. In some circumstances, like scuba diving, going to the swimming pool, walking, overnight stays, it is, or has been, essential they know I have T1. I do occasionally meet people who don’t know much about it and the most difficult part of that isn’t embarrassment, it’s framing a simple explanation of T1 that they might understand before I’ve bored the pants off them.
