People must think we gave type 1 to our kids with bad diet. I could vent for an hour. I'm glad we both have people who do want to understand and want to help.

And then there are those who are thoughtful like the Mom who wrote me this response today when I thanked her for inquiring what Ella can and can't eat:<br /><br />"Yes, of course. We want to make sure Ella will be okay.

But then the Class Mom calls out of the blue because they're having a chef demonstration at school and she wants to make sure everything they're planning is OK for Ella and I know that there are people out there that care.

They are family - my girls are awesome and they have been dealt this crap. Don't you even want to know how they are doing? Would it kill you to save the nutritional label of even one item of food for the bazillioin family gatherings? Do you even know what an insulin pump is?
