[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2493101, member: 101136"] Hi again, My view? I was diagnosed on my 8th birthday after progressively feeling ill for a week or so. Lucky, this was at the beginning of the school summer break so it give me time to adjust. Later in life..? The only diabetics I ever saw were at the clinics.. They didn't seem to be very outgoing. So I found myself drawn to a more "alternative" lifestyle where i felt more accepted even though none of the company I kept were not diabetic. I was actually in bands with other T1s. They never seemed to wanna talk.. Focus on the music & "living the dream.." Probably a different age group. We are all pretty much "dad age." ;) [/QUOTE]
