I got stuck in the middle of the lake with a British guy and another camper, because the British guy forgot to fill the boat with gas before taking us tubing.
I remember going to a group where there was a guy who was one of the first selected to try an insulin pump.
I remember midnight pricks... and how if you were low at midnight then you got pricked again at 2am....
But what I don't remember, is a sense of belong that I do with online diabetes communities. Maybe it was my age-- maybe I wasn't quite over the shock of this diagnosis... maybe I was simply too angry... I'm just not quite sure how I felt being with "other diabetics."
I DO know, that I had to go to diabetes camp before I could go to the music camp Interlochen-- the place I really wanted to go. And oddly, I felt a bigger connection with my peers through music than through diabetes alone.
I also think there were several girls in my cabin who had issues.... (like I should talk, hah). But you could tell they were struggling too...
Anyways, I think I want a happier song today. And this song just cracks me up. lol...
Have a good day!
