Diabetic Stories Website
I'm diabetic. I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes on Friday the 13th of November, 1998, and have been living with it ever since, usually pretty well.
Today I discovered Diabetic Stories, a website devoted to the life stories of people who have lived with this incurable disease.
Whether you have the disease, or just know someone who does -- and few people fail to meet at least one of those criteria, sadly -- you might find this site of interest. The transcripts reveal a great deal about the lives and humanity of the people profiled, and if you choose you can even listen to audio files of their stories.
Diabetes isn't something I enjoy, or even enjoy thinking about, frankly -- but this site is amazing, and the stories are fascinating.
