[QUOTE="searley, post: 2258750, member: 31377"] My Nan a type1 from an early age died at the age of 63 over 15 years ago.. just look at the advancements that have been made in the years since she was diagnosed. If she could make it to 63 with very little understanding and pretty much no technology there is good hope for us There is no reason why nowadays with a little care that a diabetic shouldn’t live as long as anyone else I actually think in many cases a diabetic is healthier than most other people because they know they need to take that little extra care and get a little more medical attention. It’s not worth worrying yourself to death about it’s just another of life trials. And hey having a little cry isn’t a bad thing it shows you care, and nows the time to do something with that ‘care’ Me on the other hand didn’t bat an eyelid when I was told, and still doesn’t bother me in the slightest. I sometimes wish I had feelings and that I could show them.. so it’s good that your not like me :-) Take care, ask questions, learn more about your condition and above all don’t let it get you down too much [/QUOTE]
