You need also to remember that the popular media also paints T2 diabetics as "fatties that did it to themselves". Our cause is not always a popular one, even in the wider diabetic community, and we are often unfairly labelled as a drain on NHS resources.
There are many issues in your comments to which I don't have answers.

Mod Edit (Pneu): Type I and Type II are both serious conditions to suggest that one community is more or less important.. or that one doesn't support the other (which on this forum we all support each other).. is not justified.
I only asked a simple question but it is getting more complicated by the minute.
