[QUOTE="Sue_Guernsey, post: 1038391, member: 258912"] My T1 teenage daughter has always injected in public (as discretely as possible of course). As a keen swimmer I was shocked last year when her coach advised her (not us) that as another teenage club member found it upsetting to see her inject that she was no longer allowed to inject poolside during galas and instead had to use the changing rooms/bathroom. This is the only area of her life where we have ever experienced such an attitude. Needless to say that after a long battle with the UK swimming association on the grounds of discrimination and pure madness, the decision was eventually overturned but no apology was ever given to her. Of course she is now with a new and more professionally run club! [/QUOTE]
