  • lovebat Said:

    i dont understand. children in poor countries with type i diabetes turn into adults with type i diabetes that can still not afford the medication. why does this only support children in need. i was a cute little kid with t1dm also, and guess what, i still have it. my beta cells did not spontaneously regrow. it doesnt goooo away when you are an adult.

    @DesireeandDiabetes It’s good to know. Please send us your contact info (email) in a private message so we can contact you in the event of another video taking place.

  • DesireeandDiabetes Said:

    @DiabetesHands Awe that sucks! well I live in northern california, I’m only a 6 hour drive, 1 hour flight away :-) lol, thanks for the response! I absolutely love the video, great shooters and editors.

  • type1awareness Said:

    Congratulations!! :) Love that the message was positive and made a difference in the lives of children. Insulin matters!

  • DiabetesHands Said:

    @DesireeandDiabetes Thanks for your support and feedback! About your question, we actively looked for African Americans in the LA metro with diabetes area as part of our casting process. We didn’t succeed in our efforts, given the time we had in our hands. This obviously means nothing, but in future endeavors we will do our very best to allocate more time for casting, so that we make the final product as inclusive as possible.

  • DesireeandDiabetes Said:

    I cry every time I see this :-) I hope the next video will be a little more diverse, I’m african american with type 1 diabetes and I’ve never met another african american person with type 1 diabetes, at times I feel like the only one when I know I’m not. It would have been so awesome to see that in this video :-) otherwise I love it! I watch it often :-)

    if there were a medical class for everyone throughout every school year we would probably have cured lots of diseases by now and ourselves.
