[QUOTE="redrevis, post: 147456, member: 27435"] Hi jimmy. I like to think that I am coping with my diabetes as best I can and I am not one for feeling sorry for myself, I try to get on with life, as who knows how long life will last. The things you refer to as a 'big deal', yes I have to do them, do I stop doing activities that I did before my diagnosis, no i do not, I carry on as 'normal' as I can. As far as my 'curt' gesture, I don't feel my reply was rude or abrupt. It was my honest opinion. Obviously one you were not wanting to hear, as it appears you think that all people with diabetes should act as if they cannot cope with life as they did before diagnosis. I wouldn't start talking about rights though. As Cugila posted, it is not your 'right' to have this pass, it is at the discretion of the park. And as Catherine posted, you obviosuly have a chip on your shoulder which is blatently obvious to anyone you speak to. Maybe if you improved your attitude you might get a better response from people? Just a thought. :wink: Quick question, being Diabetic, when entering a theme park, do you consider yourself as 'non-ambulant' now? Exactly what I think. Very well worded Phoenix. 8) [/QUOTE]
