jrtpup replied to Kitabparast's discussion 'Diabetes versus cancer'"Personally, I don't think one can compare. I'm a breast cancer survivor; I had a very aggressive type, and my docs told me a few years later that they didn't think I'd survive. Yes, cancer can go into remission, yet one is always…"

Jay replied to Kitabparast's discussion 'Diabetes versus cancer'"Even though this post was a couple years ago, it has been on my mind lately. While I feel guilty and petty for even thinking about being "underappreciated" if you will as a Type 1 diabetic "survivor" I think it is a natural…"

There have been many times when I felt scared or discouraged by diabetes.Tonight, I am terrified.The results of my 24-hour urine test for protein came back. Not good.

I should have ask my husband about your name and pic, he most likely would have recognized the imagery. I am Wiccan, so I just thought maybe. I am glad you enjoyed the pic I sent. I am really excited that you are familiar with us, knowledge is so exciting, about so many things!!!!!
