I know when I tell people I have diabetes, they look at me and think,
"well gee, if you'd just lose a few pounds you wouldn't have to take
insulin anymore", since that's what they hear in the news. Now I
tell people I have Type 1 Diabetes and then they ask about it. I
explain that I have had Type 1 since I was a child and that my body
no longer makes insulin and I would die without it no matter how much
I weighed.
