Diabetic Cure? --Discussion

I recently joined Reddit and learned that there is an entire diabetic community consulting with one another everyday out there! This was such an eye opening experience for me because I have never really had the chance in my life to just talk freely to other diabetics whenever I wanted to  - whether it was about a problem or a rant, I just never had the opportunity to!

However, I have faith that I will one day be able to live, pump and shots free, and be so thankful and gracious that no one else will have to go through the same hardships as I did.
