My son doesn’t have it
My daughter with T1D was diagnosed when she was a young adult and living on her own.
Another true story. When my parents selected a babysitter named Beulah Chenoworth to baby sit. They were more concerned about her being, for religious reasons, a teetotaler, not whether she knew treating the diabetic condition.
Their party was planned for Saturday night and this was Friday night. They had a keg of beer for the party and hid it under the sink.
After they returned home, paid Beulah, and sent her home, they made a discovery. Not only was Beulah not a teetotaler, she tapped the keg herself and had a couple of brews. 🍺🍻😂
