Default I was 7 then again at 39

When I was 7, I was told I had Borderline diabetes. Its like what your grandparents ahve but not quite.
You ahve to stay on a diet and exercise adn watch what you eat and take these shots and take these pills.

Every blood test came back diabetic, and teh shots every three months turned out to be insulin. I had juvenille aADULT ONSET CALLED modt|y AT 7. tHAT WAS 1967.

iN 2000 I ahd a diabetci abscess that almost took my leg. I was asked are you diabetic, I said nah.. but my family was so go ahead and poke. when labs came back I was at 407. I was diabetic. I was deliriously happy knowing that someone finally admitted it and began treatment. A shot of insulin and a shot of anesthesia and I was in lala land. I woke up and I was still happy embracing it.
