I have a slower onset but have the autoimmune disease….I love how you all produced this with so many facets to the challenges the disease poses…money for research, shortage of supplies, emotional and age related, newer diagnosed and longer term diagnosed, the second and third chances to choose health, acceptance and denial, etc. As you might remember, I was just diagnosed type 1 at age 42. I have so many thoughts about the film and the different ways it impacted me personally.

Katia has inspired me to think about how I can make a difference in educating about diabetes. All conversations always start out asking “did you check your sugar”? It’s not only difficult as parents to watch your child go through this, but it’s also very difficult for them because they are living it. It has also become so routine that I forget about the importance of not making life related to just about diabetes. He was diagnosed over 9 years ago and it has become the norm with all the challenges of diabetes management. As a mother with a type 1 diabetic son, I have grasped more of what my son goes through on a daily basis. “I wanted to reach out to you after watching Sweet 16.
