feeling alone :/
I have been a type 1 Diabetic for 20 years, and in this time I never had a Type 1 friend. So I always felt alone.. Even though my mom was helpful and my family and friends supportive I never felt like they truly under stud how I felt. In the beginning parties didn't have anything diet, no artificial sugar, no vegs just sweats and carbs. You all know how this feels, the side ways look of "can you have this" and the "let me hide and eat my cake" and "I'm going to go into a diabetic coma eating all these sweats.. hahahah" well I'm so overly happy to have found this site :) like so happy. A place were almost everyone is just like me :). I really cried the first night when I started to read other peoples blogs and comments. I don't feel so alone anymore. So to the creators THANK YOU LOTS
