  • im a diabetic too and i cryed after this :( i hate MY LIFE 

  • I agree im a 10 year old diabetic and i dont think its very fair either. i think its not fair because everyone else doesn't have to see needles everysingle day of their life and they get to eat sweets whenever and we only have it when low and it sucks when your low! You think its gonna be cool but its not because you feel so weak and you dont feel like eating then:( URGH LIFES SO TUFF!

  • How do I let her know that I care about her, and that I want to help any way I can? God Bless her, her family, and all others with Diabetes, you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong, and enjoy life to the fullest!

  • This is a very sad video. I have a friend who is 8 and going through the same thing. I feel so sorry for her but she is having a great life and enjoying herself. She is cheerful and active, she loves horses and ponies, and plays Softball. When I learned of her diabetes, it suddenly hit me, like oh my gosh, that is so sad, how can I help. I go to bed everyday praying for her and also her family. I don't know a lot about Diabetes, but I know its painful. What can I say to let her know that I

  • ive had diabeties for 2 years

  • OMG deppen hab auch diabetis type1 und mir gehts am arsch vorbei hab es seit 6 monaten weis fast alles was be hat und spritz einfach wenn man alles richtig macht geht es einem genau so gut wie vorher oder wie anderen menschen

  • Im really worried. I think I may have diabetes but I really don't want to prick myself all the time with that thing. If I do... Its probably gonna ruin my life. I feel really bad for the people who do.

  • this video is a bit exaggerated.....i've had 15 and have had diabetes for about 5 years now, and it is not as bad as it seems. yeah, it's a life change for sure, but it can be dealt with.

  • I got type one diabetes when i was 13/14 years old, im 16 now, and im trying my hardest to say healthy, but sometimes i forget, but if i keep this up i could be seriously sick :(

  • My heart broke seeing this video!! All though I don't have diabetes, my aunt died of it. I think about her everyday and am soo sad she's gone. To all of you that do have diabetes please keep fighting the fight!!

    God bless you all!!!

  • @sandi2448 THANKS!

  • i have diabetes im 10

  • i've got diabetes!! type 1 :) only had it for 1 and a half years so far.......got a while to go yet... :( but i have my good days and bad days....days where i just feel like i want to get away from it or leave it at home so i can go out for dinner and not face people staring at me like a freak if i need to test my sugar level.... what really annoys me is when adults stare.....for little kids its understandable but come on, adults...

  • excellent video! i have diabetes too and it totally sucks!

  • I am pregnant and was recently diagnosed with diabetes. Really scared. Doctor told me to track my foods & drinks in detail. Is there any good iPhone software that can help me track my diets easily? Really appreciate your info.

  • @MissNaomi000 try "Foodpics Log" app on iPhone. Google it to see its features before downloading it.

  • @MissNaomi000 Just curious; Is it just gestational?

  • This is a wonderful video that gives a small glimpse off what it is like to be a child and diabetic. My daughter is 11years old and was diagnosed with typee 1 diabetes in 2006 when she was just 6 years old. This has been most difficult battle we have ever had to deal with. She has been feeling down lately and saying she doesn't want to be diabetic anymore. I tell her, as I'm sure all mothers feel, if I could take her disease upon myself I would. You seem very strong and I pray for a cure.

  • @mzzking Don't worry, I am 11 and i am sure it will get better I was diagnosed when 4 and a half also have you heard of cwd confrences there are ones in america and england for diabetic children i go to the english one ever since it started 2 years ago mabye she would like going to one of them so she could see people the same age and how they deal with it there might be other camps but i dont know where else . :)

  • @EmmaWitheart2010 so am i!

  • i hope they find a cure i had diabetes since i was 14 months years old a baby i been in and out the hospital lots of time i been praying to god for letting me live . all we can do is pray and support others and they will find a cure it just takes time. that was a good video also it may me cry . i don't let diabetes stop me from doing anything i'm just like anybody else i'm only human. god bless everyone.

  • One normale day, I checked my blood sugar it was 100. I gave my insulin and all that jazz, And we had steak,Baked potato,bread,and salad i ate my bread,steak and salad but not that potato my mom said, Fine,JUst eat everything else. After i ate,Got full. I started my homework. I started to feel Very weird. I couldnt stand up. I struggled getting to my supplies. When i checked my sugar it was 13!!!!!! At that point i didnt know what to do i could hardly swallow!

  • i know how it feel cause im spose to gey it :( cause my family has it.But im going to be srong. Hope we find a cure. =D

  • im 24 years old from england and i have been diabetic since i was 2 years old so i know just what children feel like. its not easy to live with but we live life to the full. i love the video and i wish there was a cure or at least some medicine so we didnt have to inject ourselfs everyday. xxxxxx

  • im 24 years old from england and i have been diabetic since i was 2 years old so i know just what chindren feel like. its not easy to live with but we live life to the full. i love the video and i wish there was a cure or at least some medicine so we didnt have to inject ourselfs everyday. xxxxxx

  • stop weeping to the world. I have had it since i was 3 and a half and now i'm 10. i don't think it is so bad. i'm still a normal kid doing a great job with a great life. It's like brushing your teeth every day.

  • I'm a type one diabetic and have been for over 6 years now. Having Type 1 diabetes is life-changing but it's not the worst thing that could happen, it is manageable. Just be thankful you haven't got something worse like leukemia. Re-evaluate you're attitude and maybe your diabetes won't consume you're life as much as you claim it does. I do like how you made the distinction that Type1 is an auto immune disease though, not enough people realize this.

  • This video is actually depressing, especially for someone with Type 1 diabetes. I was diagnosed when I was 11, I'm now 27 and there is NOTHING saying a diabetic can't live a normal life, especially with the technology they have today. Insulin pumps are wonderful things, so are CGM's. Yes, living as a diabetic is a challenge, it's hard, but it a normal life can be led, so long as you don't let diabetes rule you or your life, you rule it.

  • Diabetics are not embarresed of themself anymore!!! THEY ARE NOT ALONE!

  • I myself have diabetes. I think you can live a good life. A normal. Just remember to train and take your insulin and eat better. I think we should be glad of the devices we have nowadays. In the past it had been more difficult if you had diabetes. Do those things you want to do, because you can do what all "normal" can do. there is a saying that goes: "everyone should live as a diabetic" because we live so healthy. Take care of yourself.

  • Wow, this is so simple but yet so incredible.

    I was diagnosed in February of this year at the age of 17, even at that age it was tough.

    This is so true, and exactly how our life is now.

    We need to stand our ground, and find a cure.

    Live each day to the fullest, and stay strong.

  • your amazing

  • Wow!!!!!! My BFF has type 1 diabetes too and its just so sad!! You and others in need [everyone of coarse] will always be in my heart!! You are AMAZING BRAVE!!!

  • Wow!!!!!! My BFF has type 1 diabetes too and its just so sad!!!!! You and others in need [everyone of coarse] will always be in my heart!!!!!! You are AMAZING BRAVE!!!!!!

  • I don't know why you did this but I have to say that you're very inspirational to me and probably many others as you face this challenge. Blessing upon you and your family.

  • Type One's, I've had this for nearly 3 years and we should not have to be on pumps, would should still be injecting ourselves. This shows that we know how to take care for ourselves.

  • Comment removed

  • i hate being diabetic. its ruining me.

  • I have diabetes type 1 and I've never lived my life better. Diabetes opened my eyes and now I am eating only healthy food. The pokes aren't a problem and neither are insulin injections. I know a person who cured himself by getting his pancreas transplanted. He doesn't have diabetes anymore and is living his life without the injections and pokes. Diabetes isn't affecting my family at all, it only encouraged them to eat healthier. This may sound weird, but I am really glad to have diabetes.

  • ive had type 1 diabetes since march 27th 2008 and this song really helpsnthx

  • Diabetes is an everyday challenge, however people forget the social battle that comes with it, especially anyone diabetic with a pump. I have had school teachers try and confiscate it because they thought it ws an ipod. teachers have also joked about it with me. and the rest of the class. at the time it was funny. but now i realise its quiet disgusting what the outside worlds attitude is towards diabetics.

  • God bless all of you with Diabetes.

  • @MissAnnie1000 Thankyou so much :)

  • @MissAnnie1000  onzin joh

  • just passed my one year diaversary, and finally pumping!!!!!!!! thanks for posting. love the song, the message... everything :) fight for the cure <3

  • Hi my name is Michelle and i have been diagnosed since April 2,2009 and one thing that helps me is the family support and the love of all my diabetic friends from Camp Sweeney :)

  • I'm coming up to my 18th anniversary of diabetes. this video is am amazing, and so, so true. Thinking of you. xx

  • what song is this???

  • hello I am jeff from lowell mass just kep your head up keep smiling i just was diagnosed wow a big change for me I will pray for you

  • we pray for you ,i am a diabetologist from india

  • we pray for you

  • Type 1 since age of 4 now 51. Keep up the good work. Keeping active is a big key. I was an avid bike rider thousands of miles. Medtronic insulin pump is a great addition to my life. Magnesium breaks down calcium blocks. Check magnesium levels as you age.

  • We are trying to find some solutions for diabetes, both type 1 and type 2. Some have good improvements. Hope there may be some cure for diabetes soon. It is really affect us a lot, especially for children.

  • i have type 1 for seven years now...me and diabetes get along just fine! i think it's just a way of life and nothing more, i've got so used to diabetes that i can't imagine my life without having lol

    btw, i think that this video shows a dramatic version of diabetes...

  • type one is insulin deficient, and type 2 is insulin resistant, but both result in high blood glucose if untreated. Type 2 is caused by malformed insulin receptors in tissue that do not receive insulin signals very well, often compounded by natural insulin resistance, which is caused by several biological factors, to include obesity.

    type 1 is autoimmune, and is often the result of your immune system destroying insulin producing cells in the pancreas at a rate higher than they can regenerate.

  • hi my name is caitlyn and i have been a type 1 diabetic for 5yrs now and i know how hard the struggle can be you have to be aware of how ur feeling and checking your blood sugar daily the thing that helped me was i have a family that will back me up all the way and i also went to a diabetic camp this summer and it really helped me.....the thing i always think of is that diabetes isnt a illness its a challenge that you learn to overcome...good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @MrFrikkenfrakken not easy to control if you had a very bad temprament and lazy type of person ... lol .. those darn levels hit the roof when I am angry or upset .....6 years of being diabetic and now it began hitting my only functional kidney .... very challenging and cruel indeed ...

  • this is a good video because it's true! i have type one too. I've had it since i was 3 and i'm now 13. It is a struggle and every milestone we pass is a BIG accomplishment. I used to have insulin injections, but now i have the animas one touch insulin pump. *We are survivors*

  • Such a Nice , touching video. Its real, but I think in India Diabetes in Kids is a rare thing.Mostly the cases are due to age factor(Above 35) & stress. Here we have diet of more vegetables like Bitter gourd, trigonella foenum graecum , Hordeum Vulgare , etc. in our daily diet. Following Ayurveda concepts gives real advantages of being in touch with mother nature. You can visit the site of ayushmaan pharma India.. But I am really proud of the kids so bravely fighting with the disease. Hats UP...

  • @ayushmaanpharma type 1 is not due to diet whatsoever. Just want to let you know, so that is not why it would be rare in India. A lot of us get diabetes through generations of family members who have it.

  • im sorry for being so ignorant T.T but what is the difference between type 2 and type 1

  • @0unconscious0 type 2 is like when you have too much sugar and not eating what you should be, and type 1, what I have, is your genes. It's not from not eating the right foods, its an auto-amune disorder. Type 2 is mostly in overweight people

  • @0unconscious0 type 1 you have to take shots and you have to take your blood sugar alot and type 2 is when you take pills but not as often as shots and type 1 is mainly for kids and type 2 is for adults

  • i have type 1 diabetes i got it when i was 8 and now i'm 13 i remember when i was normal but don't worry there is a lot of people now i just went t the doctors 1 day for something and an hour later i was in hospital for 3 weeks after -great video =)

  • too bad the the big pharma doesnt want a cure, all the money donated isnt doing anything but more treatments not ever a cure. there is more money donated for cures now that n ever but there or more cases than ever, this doesnt make any sense, you need to look into the natural treatments that the fda and the government dont want you to know about!

  • i got type 1 diabetic on nov. 30th 07. ill be 15 in january, it sucks cause i knew what it was like to be normal.

  • @morgiexx13 its okay. Im 22 and have yet to be diagnosed. Im scared to be, but will be heading to the dr as soon as I find the courage!!

  • diabetes does not make us different we are normal i dont let it stop me from doin what i want and when i want. yeah i kno u hav to do finger pricks and site changes and count carbs but once u get use to it its alright but my friends are there for me all the time and my family are to and thts what get me trough it and sometimes i even 4get i have diabetes, so i find it a bit offensive how the video is all about the negative and how we.re not normal cz we are dont let diabetes take over your lfe

  • my mom has had type 1 diabetes for almost 50 years

  • This is a video is dedicated to an amazing little boy, named Matthew. It has been 5 years since Matt's diabetes diagnosis. The journey has been tough, we have learnt so much, and are proud of our little man.

    Check it out..........

  • ive had diabetes since i was 17 months old. im 14 now. and ive lost freinds from it. diabetes sucks. but i dont know anything different......so i have no idea what its like to be normal......

  • I have had type 1 since I was 3.I am now 12.Diabetes is hard to live with, but we have to deal with it.Sometime in the future there will be a cure and then no one will have to deal with it.It does suck and is not fair, but its just our luck.Hope your diabetes is undercontrol.

  • i jus got diagnosed with diabetes and still undergoing tests to find out whether i need insulin injections.. ur very brave for sucha yound girl x

  • I have diabetes1 for 5,5 years.. and it's really tough!

    most of all the follow diseases..

  • i am normal and i have diabetes  know for 4 years and i am perfectly normal

  • i have 143gm/dl. glucose in the blood . is it i have type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes ,

    what should i take for my meals.

  • I have had type one diabetes my whole life, a whole 13 years..I do not remember a time when I have not had it. It is like a lifestyle now. But something has come out called a pump. I have had one for 3 years. It works wonders. I love it.

    And what bugs me is when people abuse this privlage by not putting the carbs in. I have seen so many people who could have been heathy not..

    Fight on, diabetics, Because there will be a cure sometime...

  • May i ask you, does the finger poke hurt? ad how you poke it?

  • i have type 1 as well

  • Hey dudes !

    its a pleasure to meet blood brothers like me.

    i have type 1 since my 26th birthday.

    i am treating myself well, but i do not give up to a thing because of my illness.

    I just take my accu check and novorapid with me wherever i go !

    Kee chin up friends, its not soo bad.

    There are lots of bad illness that does not let you get you body moving around, we diabetics can do almost everything.

    I think we are millions, and we might call laboratories attention.

  • i have type 1 diabetes and have since i was 9 months!!!!! i am now 11 going on 12

  • song please??

  • You put a great video together, good job. I hope you are well... from a 28 year survivour of type 1 diabetes. You have alot of life to live, It's about Quality, not Quantity. Live to the fullest and Love to the deepest.

    Take Care,

    Damon

  • i have type 1 it sucks but will have to wait like everyonelse for a cure

  • @MrYankeeboy001 There is a cure, or at least, there will be one soon. A recent study for a medecine to treat a certain illness has been found to successfully REVERSE type 1 diabetes in lab rats! Testing hasn't begun on humans, but i think it will soon! =)

  • i also have diabetes. i had it since 4 or 5 and i am now 12 and it has effected my life and my family. i hope one day there will be a cure.

  • omg you guys do like its the worst thing on the planet!

    im a type 1 diabetic my own..

    stop cry about it and learn to live with it..

    serious we all know that its **** but this goes to far

  • Looking at this video makes me very sad. I will never just feel sorry for myself. Yeah I'm type 1 but hey, I think it makes us all a lot stronger than the average person. Maybe it takes you to nearly go into a coma, but I've realized that having this makes me a better person. They say we live a shorter life, well I'm taking care of myself and I'm not going to let diabetes live my life for me. No one should. Live your own life and have fun. Don't hold back by going anywhere, you'll regret it.

  • i have type 1 also...ive had it since i was 2 years old, im not 14. it gets rough sometimes but always know there are others out there and you're never alone. if anyone treats you differently just because you're diabetic....who cares? we're just like everyone else and, like your vid states, we do try to be normal. so keep pushing through this knowing there are people out there who really do know what it feels like to go through this. i really respect your video :)

  • i have type 1 diabetes too. i am 14 years old and ive had it since i was 2...just always know that theres other people out there like you, your never alone

  • my life is a hell !!!!!!!!!

  • I have type 1 too, I'm 12 and had it since I was 3.I use to get insulin injections, but this past December, I got the One Touch ping.I've had a lot of hospitals visits because my blood sugar was in the 20-30's range.And you are right, it is not fair.Not fair at all, to any of us diabtiecs.FIND A CURE:)

  • i am a diabetic and i found out at the age of 11and there have been times when i wish i could just stop and now i am just like hey this makes me who i am and if people dont like me beacuse of this then they must not kno me and my friends that are close to me help me with very thing and that is the type of people u should keep around

  • true that loved it people dont know how much it takes im type 1 and proud hahahah

  • HOLA PROBAD CON STEVIA,PARA REGULAR LA ENFERMEDAD ,SALUD PARA TODOS, (GLUCOMETROS NO INVASIVOS YA!

  • i am 12 and have been a type 1 for 4 months and 1 day and it sucks but u just have to deal wit it... i hate it but thers nuthn i can do to change it...

    May there be a cure soon!

  • ive had diabetes since ive been about 2 and im now 13 x ive got to keep my blood sugar level between 4 and 8 , its really hard sometimes x great video ! xx

  • Hang in there girl! It'll get easier when you're fully grown. I have type 1 and it's not fun, but I hardly think about it anymore. It's just another chore, like brushing my teeth. I'm 26.

  • people need a cure for this no one wants this NO ONE

  • @crazynick66 :( 

  • My son has type 1. It is very sad. Check out his video on you tube...search for: GriffsGorillaz

  • i use Humalog 2!!! I love this song, it makes this video less sad if you like Rascal Flatts

  • I know more about type1 diabetes than I want to! My son is 29 and has been brittle since being diagnosed in 1991. On the brink of death too many times to count. Even with his attentiveness he had 3 severe reactions this past year.

  • Wow! What a great video! I cried through the entire thing.... so many memories! I've been type 1 diabetic since I was 10 (25 now) and wow this really triggered a lot of memories and confusion... anger and resentment as a child and even still to this day. Thanks for sharing your video!

  • This brought tears to my eyes. There is an artificial pancreas out there and has been tested by many people. It works, but I don't think we will see it for us anytime soon. It was bought by the company that sells us our usual diabetic supplys.

  • this is a really sweet video. i've had Type 1 Diabetes for four years now, and i wish for a cure every single day. hopefully they'll get one soon.

  • @rose2antonio me too! (not the four years tho only 3 months so far! learning though) cures are coming faster and faster tho

  • i have type 1 Diabetes i was diagnostic with it where i was 6 dont let it get u down i still have my break downs my family is allways there for me dont let get u down.

  • i have type 1 diabetes i was diagnostic with where i was 6 dont let it get u down i still have my break downs my Family is allways there for me dont let get u down.

  • So many little children are coming down with diabetes after their childhood vaccines. There is even a warning about the correlation in the patient information sheet. As mandatory childhood vaccine have increased so has the number of children coming down with this disease and the onset occurs at a younger and younger age.

    Most parents had about 12 vaccines before they stared school, now kids are given 48+ vaccines in the same time frame. What a shame.

  • nice vid

  • i got diagnostic with type 1 diabetes when i was 6 years old, right know im going to be 15 and is not easy. you have your moments were you just wanna like, stop time and go to the time were you werent diabetic or something like that. you miss your moments as a normal kid, but we can live with it. i have faith that we diabetic teens can make it through. so keep it up, girl. you are strong ^-^

  • i got type 1 on my 14th birthday.

    Sucks ass.

    Never joke about it

  • this is a very moving video.. i am 17 and i have type 1. I have my break downs but we have to go on. This is something thats never gonna change... you are a strong girl..

  • I agree with you and having diabetes really does suck. I've had type 1 since my 10th birthday and well ya it just sucks.

  • Being Diabetic sucks i became a type one when i was 11 too. : ( i am now 19 and still wonder why but i stay stong

  • woot me too

  • This video is very moving. This girl is very moivational in my eyes. Check my page around time to time. Gunna start some diabetes based vidz. both types. Stay strong guys. My motto- Don't let it control you, Take control of it!

  • Even though a cure may be a long ways away still or just around the corner possibly... We are making huge steps forward to create a simpler lifestyle for all of us with diabetes, both types 1 and 2... Such as the break through research being down currently... where a glucose meter is being developed to use saliva instead of blood... Taking away the need to prick your finger so many times a day and lessening the stress...

  • i agree. if there was a cure tomorrow, i wouldnt take it. ive gained to much from this experience. though im all up for helping to find a cure

  • I agree. Raise money. Dats what i did

  • ^^^realizing that diabetes is, however incurable, controllable and meeting other kids my age with diabetes who ive grown really close to has helped me through it. along with this video, thanks for uploading it.

  • ive had diabetes since may of 2002, im 16 and for someone your age (not calling you young or anything) to be able to make a video informing people of what type 1 diabetes is really like and to reach out and ask for a cure makes me realize i need to kick it up a notch. diabetes has significantly changed my life. but so many great things have come out of it. ive learned that though every day is a struggle, its possible to take care of.

  • im 12 years old and have type 1 diabetes. u inspire me. keep fightin<3 :)

  • How long you had it for kid?

  • Nic vid

  • While I don't have diabetes, a friend of mine made two videos on her account. It won't let me post the links, but I think you will enjoy them. Her username is @HeartCOOP. Through her, and another friend, who sadly, passed away of unrelated causes, I have learned about the disease and I an watching random youtube videos to get more of a sence of everyday life.

  • I got Type 1 Diabetes and im 11 i've had it since i was 10. Its not that hard for me any more I just find it part of life now.

  • i was 7 and now iam 17 and i  have a special form that sucks but life goes on ^^ greetz to all people that have diabetes :)

  • This video brought tears to my eyes. I was diagnosed at 14, but I'm still struggling with some of the day to day regimen. It is really exhausting and it really is a struggle every single day.

    Type 1 Diabetes really makes you grow up faster than you want to. I wish you so much health. Keep fighting, girl.

    Don't forget to be a kid too, okay?

  • i got diabetes with 9 ... it's not allways easy!

  • i,m 11 years old and i

    also got diabetes type 1

  • diabetes is as bad as this vid makes it out to be today i got a detention for fainting in the hall way by the nurse cuz my school nurse is an idiot but the point is every time we get a high bg thats is a strike of our eyes kidneys limbs and much more once our strikes are up were are screwed so we have to take care and plan everything to make sure we dont get high

  • wtf man shes more then stupid man u sud tel ur pprincipal tht not on

  • My son is 14 and very healthy, thin does everything right and he was just diagnosed 3 days ago. Conbo70 you are an ass, type 1 has no rhyme or reason these are kids and yes it can be as bad as this Koltonkj26. Some kids have it a long time before they are diagnosed and that makes it harder to control. We are very lucky as my son was diagnosed before any damage occured.

  • How old is the girl?

  • If you knew anything about Type 1 diabetes you would know those are sources of fast acting sugar to treat emergency low blood glucose. For meals and snacks that are not treating lows she does eat natural organic foods.

  • I got diabetes to....

  • my dad has type one and im pretty sure its not this dramatic everyday does not have to be planned. and if you stupid americans were smart you would go out and exersize

  • .......thats rude. extremly rude.

  • Conbo70 are you talking abou type 2?

  • If your DAD is type 1 then you should know that type 1 is not because of being a stupid, fat American. Type 1 is autoimmune and has nothing to do with being overweight.

    Did you even WATCH the video? Open your eyes.

  • Diabetes does suck but its not as bad as this video makes it.

  • I was diagnosed with diabetes 1 month ago, and it's not fun, I can't eat what/when I want, it's a pain to live with all my life:(:(:(
