This is for those who hate diabetes and thinks it changed you completly, Ya diabetes changes us but it doesnt change us in a bad way. Its changes us in a good way. Diabetes makes us a stronger person. It also makes us even more unique. People who dont like us just because we are diffrent its there loss. The people who tease us and call us names or the people who say things that hurt us or even the ones who think they know more then we do about it: those people make us a stronger person.

Thanks!

You are so right Anna! And what I've found as I've gotten older (I'm 51) is that most people admire what I do to take care of myself with the diabetes. I think you'll find it gets better as you get older. So stay strong and stay an inspiration for people like me!

Those are some awesome mustaches, eh?

Just looking at the makes me feel stronger. Heh.

Machen sie den schnurrbärten stärker

* That which does not kill us gives us a strong mustache

Very wise words, Anna. You are correct. You are very special, too. ;0)

thanks
