Hello I am a young person with both type 1 and coeliac. Having both of these really is a challenge and if you have both like me you will understand. Things such as going to a friends for tea, holidays and my personal nightmare the cost of food all play a part in every day life. For my family the money we get funded for diabetes mostly pays for the gluten free foods due to the high cost . I am grateful for having friends and friends parents who understand and cater for my conditions, however I have had quite a few experiences where people haven’t quite understood my conditions when I’ve gone over there house (such as providing non gluten free meals).
Often in these situations I am very torn between what to say or do. What do you guys or would you do in this situation?
