Okay, so I got diagnosed on April 20, 2006...and it's not even been ayear, obviously. And I went on the pump at the end of the summer becuase I could NOT handle doing so many shots in one day. So everything is pretty good, except I don't have any friends that have diabetes and all I want is someone that I can talk to a lot and relate because no one really understands unless they actually have the freaking disease. Any takers?

Have you thought of signing up for any Diabetes Camps ? There is one in NH and Joslin Clinic runs some in Mass.....everyone there has Diabetes and knows what it's REALLY like. Also.....there are some groups around that do a lot of meetings...kids and parents both go, then split up...we go to one in North Andover Mass and I have a list of a few others....PM me if you might be intereested in looking into it !
I just got diagnosed less than a year ago, too, and my best friend has been really cool about it all, but I know what its like to want someone to talk to that actually has diabetes.
