good parents help their diabetic son

[picklebean]

I thought I would share this with you...

the parents who had tattoos of insulin pumps on their bellies so that their diabetic son wouldn't feel "different"

here's the link to the original place I found the photo (I had to upload to a host as it wasn't posting properly)

Lovely thought from the litttle boys parents. :thumbup:

Read about a little girl who has a teddy with an old used pager plus piece of tubing
attatched to his tummy - so she wouldnt feel it was just her .
She takes it to school with her - it helps her school chums to accept her more easily
as its a psychological childrens curiosity thing with accepting her with a pump etc...
Read about this in a magazine I bought last year.
