To be very honest, I know little about this aspect of diabetes. But when I saw it as the top story in Yahoo news I felt compelled to share it with you all. I have a few problems with not only parts of the article, but some of the accompanying videos that surround it. I will save my editorial comments and put this out there for others who certainly know more than I to share their feelings.
I do know people who have lived through this nightmare and this heartache. I share with you and ask if you have anything to add, please feel free. If it is a fear, if you have lived it, and/or you know about it feel to add to the reply on this article.
What a brave young lady to take her story ‘out there’ among the masses and surely this will reach beyond the borders of just the diabetes community. Already comments are being posted.
Be warned that the comments already being posted after the article might very well show you some of the problems, we as a diabetes community, continually face on the education of the masses.
Here is where you can find the article:

Not an easy read so I caution you in advance.
