[QUOTE="adheco, post: 2226478, member: 194473"] Have just moved into 70 years as a Type 1, diagnosed at the old Royal Free in Grays Inn Road in March 1950. Things were very different then and I am extremely grateful for all the help, advice, comfort and understanding I have received from the staff and others at the Royal Free over all those years. I am very aware of what I owe to others not least members of my family, and the obligation I have not to inflict my condition on others. Diabetes has a sociable aspect that is often ignored. I was told recently that a trip to and from the Royal Free by ambulance plus a couple of hours in A&E to treat a hypo costs around £4,000. Very sobering thought. [/QUOTE]
