The first memories that I have of the diabetes with 6 years are the nights dying of thirst, I woke up very slowly so that no one would hear me, I drank from the tap up to a chair because a glass did not calm the huge thirst.
But my mother always listened to me and got up, neither she nor I knew what was happening, my mother took me to the head doctor, her diagnosis was "as it shows that she is an only child ... say that she sleeps and does not do herCase, you will see how the pampering happened ", I and my twin are the littleof "youth diabetes".
I remember that I went with my parents to the doctor and they both cried, the doctor told them that nothing happened, that it was a very brave girl and asked me, what if?I said "yes" proud, and I kissed my mother.From that day I never saw them cry in front of me for this reason.
I remember that after that the entrance into the hospital, accompanied by my mother and my father, to a large dist usual of our house, I remember the punctures in the legs and arms with huge needles, remember the food without salt and the whole without sugar, I remember above all a day when I rebelled, they did not allow my mother to be while they punctured me and cried, I shouted, I kicked ....... my mother was behind the door suffering insurance more than me, in the end theThey let in and the nurse told him "This girl is very spoiled if she continues to see how she is ..." My mother replied "is a 6 -year -old girl who does not know very well that she is happening or why she changed herThe life suddenly is normal that he does not understand that he is happening and rebel. "That day I wanted her even more;)
I feel that I have had a very, very happy childhood, my sisters, my family, my friends have always made me feel very dear, and we have had a great time.
At 11, my twin sister told my mother that she was very thirsty, my sister knew, like me, what that meant, my mother did a blood and bingo test! My sister was also a diabetic, from thatWe were both, for better and worse.
We passed a rebel adolescence and many aspects, including the sugar that had been forbidden for years, sometimes we hid and eat jelly beans ..... that was a significant increase in glucose .... but at that time ....
After that time we left the house to go to university, it was an absolutely wonderful era ... of independence, of student life and to feel fully integrated, I introduced me to the faculty elections, we did miles for others, andIt seemed that we would change the world;).My sister and I ended right, and the part of separating, looking for work ....
Today I am 38 years old, I have no children (by my own decision) my sister has two precious children, I have a job that I love, I am divorced, I live alone and I am very happy, because if ..., and thinking about the past it isIt was not easy, but today diabetes and I, we have a mutual agreement of respect, of treatment of equal, in a sense I do not imagine without it, but I can say that we are friends and we know each other a lot, myLife to date has been full and happy.
