blue candles



blue candles.
the sign that diabetes has claimed yet another life.

every time one appears somewhere in the diabetic community it scares me. it scares me just how bad diabetes really is

people think its a pretty harmless disease to have, one that doesn't have much risk of killing you, but they're wrong. 

this morning i found out that a friend from the diabetes community died at the weekend. she had been in hospital with diabetic ketoacidosis (a condition which can be fatal if not treated quickly) she was getting better though, she was going to be discharged.... but she never made it out of there. 

its times like this when i really really hate despise diabetes. its taken the life of yet another person. it shouldn't be like that. 

people need to realise the seriousness of what it can do... how life threatening diabetes can be. 

but right now I'm hurting for the life its taken this time...

RIP Hazel, I'm gunna miss you an awful lot... I'm just glad you don't have to fight this anymore </3
