So I was on the phone yesterday evening talking with a friend and fellow PWD (person with Diabetes), when the following words came out of my mouth: People with diabetes are the strongest people I know, because we have no choice but to be strong- we HAVE to be strong in order to survive. Sometimes I wonder if it's the diabetes that makes us strong, or were we picked by some unseen diabetes force to be diagnosed with the "Big D" because of the strength we already possess? Dude, It's like the diabetes version of the whole 'Chicken or the egg scenario.' Well,at least their both low carb~
Now I absolutely believe that being a PWD makes us stronger people because of all the crap that's thrown our way and that strength is indeed a diabetes gift. But sometimes....I wonder about the whole D chicken and egg scenario - because I'm weird like that~
