What do non -diabetics do when facing a diabetic?There is everything, there are those that get very serious, because they have been taught that when someone counts a misfortune you have to get serious, there are those that stare at you, with an intensity that gets to hurt, there are those who look elsewhere,You have to twist their mouths and quickly look for something in their memories that have to do with diabetes to make you see that they understand you, some of their grandfather, there are quickly those that they tell you that they also had a very bad time with anotherillness, there are those who tell you that they feel it, without feeling it, and there are those who tell you that they feel it, and if they feel it, because they love you, because even if they do not have an idea that is that of type 1 diabetes they know aboutYour voice that you are having a bad time, that you are lost, that you do not know what to do, that you do not have an idea that it is that of type 1 diabetes, how serious it should be because that way of thinning could not be good.
To all of them you have to be grateful, yes.To the former because it serves you to prepare for what you are going to find in the street.And I do not mean the ignorance, that I also mean that feeling that they do not know what you are talking about, what you think they imagine that you are exaggerating, that removing the endo and two more, for others you are a hysterical,Because his grandfather was also diabetic and he didn't get like that.And to the latter because, although they also think that you are a hysterical, they will silence it, and lend themselves to hear you, to vent with them.
Unfortunately, the former are many more than the latter.Then you start defending yourself.And to the second time you have you have nothing to do with type one with type two.And on the third occasion, because the second obviously has not served at all, you tell them that your pancreas does not produce any insulin, and that if you are wrong in the amount of insulin and you get too much you can pass out.To the fourth, seen the little success of the third, it is when you find the first reef of your "defense", the pricking insulin, the measure ... ummmm, the faces that put when you tell it, and do you have to prick many times?Yes, many, and you show it by clicking at that time.Well, first victory, they already look at you with respect….I would dare to say that with pain.
What happens is that non -diabetics, even without being diabetic, are not dumb.And they see that you make life more or less normal, clicking you, yes, but you make normal life (see note), and stop respecting you.It is then when you have to decide, or you decide not to respect you confirming you again confirming that if you live more or less normal, and that at about clicking, one gets used to ...Or you tell you that the profession goes inside, that it hurts the prick that hurts, what happens is that the worst is to calculate the hydrates to know the insulin that you have to wear, that if you are wrong you play your future, and that all this tires, and a lot ...And well, you have hope that in a few years there will be an artificial pancreas ... Ah, and tell you about the insulin bomb ...AGGGG?Humed to a machine?…Anyway, I planned to make a story about all this for Abbot's contest but as precisely patience to be more than fifteen minutes in front of the keyboard is not one of my virtues, because I have decided to hang it here.
Note: A non -diabetic will never imagine that a puncture may not hurt.
