What Kind of Question is That??

This morning I saw this amazing link on Twitter and had to share it http://www.diabetesdaily.com/voices/2013/03/top-29-most-annoying-things-to-say-to-people-with-diabetes/ Many thanks to Ginger Vieira for creating this list.

Those living with diabetes and their caregivers will enjoy the list, those that don't know to much about diabetes, the ones asking such questions will hopefully understand why this list was made.  Leanne and I have been faced with a lot of these questions, I'm not always the nicest person and will often walk away or just smile and change the subject when I'm faced with such a ridiculous question.  I understand where the question is coming from but I would never walk up to someone and ask "Your father was never bald why did you go bald so young?" or "Wow what is it like to be the only person overweight in your family?"  As a diabetic that is what those 29 questions feel like.  I don't know how else to put but I will say that if we continue to raise awareness that these questions will slowly go away.
