This actually happened when the nurse, vice principal and principal confronted me about an aggressive locker check that was performed on me the previous day. The contents of my locker were tossed all around the hallway and papers were lost because of it. I let a teacher know and she told the principal. Then they confronted me in the nurse's office even though I just came from the gym with a blood sugar of 51 and they would not let me treat my low blood sugar. This happened right before we moved away from that school.

  • Get a Lawyer, sue the school, the teachers, the administrators and anyone involved that is the only way they will learn. The diabetic is protected by the Americans with Disability act. This 2012 not 1910 they are supposed to have enough sense to pour water from a bucket without instruction.

  • And that night she wonders why her tires are slashed.

  • I've been forced to eat before with a high blood sugar (well over 300 for several hours and climbing) and no insulin remaining in my pump. Asking for insulin, I would be told that I would be ok and was over reacting. Not all nurses are intelligent. I believe one of them hit me with the "you don't look diabetic...".

  • Oh wow. I'm a diabetic too, and i could never imagine that happening. What school?

  • OMFG this woman needs to be fired. Sorry you had to go through this. GAHHH so angry.

  • This video makes me want to beat somebody down!! Unbelievable!
