I don't even know HOW I got it. The ONLY other person in my family who HAD it was my grandma's brother, but he died when he was in his twenties. How could it pass through the rest of family, but only affect me?

I don't even know HOW I got it. The ONLY other person in my family who HAD it was my grandma's brother, but he died when he was in his twenties. How could it pass through the rest of family, but only affect me? It could be a result of genes. Here, let me explain: D=No Diabetes (Dominant) d=Diabetes (Recessive) Basically, you get two genes, one from your mother and one from your father. Both your parents could be carrying the Diabetes gene but not have it because the No Diabetes gene is dominant. Therefore, they could be both "Dd." Even though they didn't have Diabetes, they still had the gene for it. Both your parents must have passed you the gene for Diabetes, therefore you are "dd." Since you have no dominant gene, both are equal and you have Diabetes.

I miss being non-diabetic. About a year after I got it, I wasn't little miss sunshine. My personality changed, completely. I was shy, I barely talked except to my friends. =( I don't even know if it was bad karma or what, but I was always generous, and happy, I put my family before me, so I don't why I got it.

YES YOU CAN!!!! DON't YOU DARE LISTEN TO WHAT ANYONE SAYS!!!!! This man, he came to camp one year, and told us that when he was a kid, his doctor told him he would never ever be able to fly planes, but guess what? He did it anyway!!! I want to be a vet, or something that has to do with animals. I also want to travel to Greece, Australia, England, Ireland, and maybe China, I don't know if they let you visit there.
