Comments on: The honeymoon is over http://www.type-1-diabetes.zolushka123.com/2005/07/01/the-honeymoon-is-over/ for anyone who has been touched by this disease Thu, 04 Dec 2008 23:52:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 By: Arlen Roberts http://www.type-1-diabetes.zolushka123.com/2005/07/01/the-honeymoon-is-over/#comment-3947 Arlen Roberts Mon, 11 Jul 2005 21:42:22 +0000 http://www.type-1-diabetes.zolushka123.com/2005/07/01/the-honeymoon-is-over/#comment-3947 Rob, I am not trivializing diabetes, by any means. However, there are far worse things that our children could have. I was diagnosed at 8, and my best friend had it, too. I actually thought it was neat. But, as the years accumulated, (and they do, with or without our approval,) I came to realize how fortunate I am to only have diabetes. If it had been a fatal form of leukemia or cystic fibrosis, I would have been gone a long long time ago. It's all relative, isn't it, once again, no pun intended! Joan Rob,

I was all cried out by this point so I looked at the honeymoon ending as less of a chance for lows and a good thing.
