Young and Pretty and Diabetic

If it’s one thing that really, really (REALLY) bugs me about diabetes, it’s the fact that people think you get it because you’re fat or you’re lazy or you’re out of shape. I think the sheer number of athletes that have gotten the disease should be an indication of how wrong that is, but some people are slow to “get it,” ya know?

I got Type 1 diabetes when I was in the best shape of my life. Here’s another story that will surprise you about who gets diabetes. Enjoy.
