On Instagram today, the hashtag #diabetes was high on the list of trending tags. With it being Easter, there were a lot of Easter egg posts and i just wanted to remind people of this Diabetes isn't that Easter Egg, large piece of birthday cake, or that super sized McDonald's meal with extra fries, or anything you see coated with sugar. Diabetes is an 18 year old girl sitting on her bathroom floor shaking and not able to breathe because her blood sugar dropped and praying her Mums phone is near her and she got the text message to bring some sugar since she's too weak to yell and the whole room is spinning. It's a 9 year old boy who is trying to play outside with his friends and ends up being carted away in an ambulance because he went unconscious when he didn't feel his sugar slipping. It's a 32 year old girl who FINALLY got the news that she's pregnant and going to have the family she's always wanted, but instead of celebrating like she should be she's worried to death that her blood sugars won't stay in range with all of the hormones and that it's going to kill her baby before she gets to meet it... and maybe even her. It's a 3 year old who doesn't understand why her Mummy has to stab her with a syringe every single time she eats, but not her sister. It's a 4 year old girl that I read about recently who lost her life because a doctor misdiagnosed her diabetes as the flu and she ended up a victim of diabetic ketoacidoses, where your blood literally turns acidic from the lack of insulin in your body and attacks your organs. Diabetes is your mother, your neighbour, your cousin. Diabetes isn't the morbidly obese man you see on tv. It isn't something people ask for or give themselves. It's a disease that isn't picky when it chooses who to attack, it doesn't care if you're 2 months old or if you're 73. It doesn't care if you eat Big Macs and fries every day of your life or if you're a strict vegan who goes to the gym daily. Diabetes is me. Diabetes is a bunch of people who fight for their life every single day and go to bed not sure if they're going to wake up the next morning. So before you tag your huge dessert #Diabetes, think about what #Diabetes really looks like.

Happy Easter! Yes, we can eat chocolate (in moderation as we all should) we just have to work out the carbs and manually inject the insulin required to cover it.
