Guys thanx for sharing your experience!When I first was told I had diabetes I was very embarrassed and scared at the same time. I was the only kid at my school and later the only student at the university with diabetes. Some people felt free to tell me horrifying scenario what would happen to me in a few years and how my life would end up. I always appreciated to know people who have deal with diabetes every day and learn from them. Noone of us deserves to have such an experience as diabetes. Diabetes is not fun thing to deal with. But I'm sure together it's little bit easier than to go along with it by yourself. Good luckand patience for everyone in this journey!
