I don’t have diabetes,
but I get bullied here all the time by people who think I’m retarded or have down syndrome because people won’t take the time to get to know me because they don’t want to be don’t want to be wrong.
All I’m saying is Bullies can pick on you for other reasons & it’s not right, but I enjoyed the video.

I also have type 1. You are right, no one should hide their insulin, it is nothing to be ashamed about. I do not like the distinction either. My dad has Type 2 and it is not any better for them. And it is parcily heretitary too.
