[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2073049, member: 345386"] BeckiDover we are only a few days into Diabetes Week. As others have said, the guy reported to have climed Mount Everest was Type 1, and I must say, his efforts are a fabulous achievement, with or without diabetes. There will be other articles on other days, plus of course, the presence on other social media, such as Facebook and Twitter. Of course it is very, very important that research is ongoing, with the aim of providing a cure, and ideally, prevention for all forms of diabetes, and of course T1 is core to that. The harsh reality is that current statistics suggest 90% of people with diabetes are T2, however, whichever type of diabetes an individual developes, there is no place stigma. Stigmatising an individual is more a stick than a carrot. [/QUOTE]
