the random post

Amy- I often focus on things that diabetics can't do, but today I will be focusing on things that we CAN do...
1. When I flew to New York, they allowed me to bring as many drinks as I wanted on the plane :)
2. I get to eat snacks in places where people usually can't because of my medical reasons- WOOT!
3. I can talk about being high in public without getting arrested...I think?
4. If I were on a diet, which I'm not, I wouldn't have people offering me unhealthy food, because they already assume that I can't have it!
5. Getting shots at the doctor's office is a breeze- I am sooo used to that by now!
6. I know a lot more about medical things than many people my age.
Okay now it's Hannah's turn-my inspiration has flown! If there are any other diabetics reading this blog, feel free to comment with ideas of your own! And also if you're not diabetic, feel free to post too! We loooove input !
