I was diagnosed with diabetes when I was 8 years old. I was in the second

grade. The insulin they put me on was wrong for me and I ended up with a very

low

sugar. The principal took me to the main office put me on the phone to talk

to my mom, she knew right away by the way I was trying to talk I was having a

low sugar and told them to take me to the ER. I was told by some of my friends

I fell out of my desk and went into seizures. I was in a coma for two days.

When I came out of the hospital the school didn't want me to come back because

they didn't want me to do that to them again. My mom had to fight the school

for me to be let back in. I feel bad for what your son is going through. I will

keep all of you in my prayers.

laura, that is really really bad. i'm so mad for you! i'm glad

you've spoken to an attorney. things like this should not be swept

under the carpet. i'd really be tempted to call a local media

station too, if i didn't see a clear response from the hospital that

they were doing something to remedy their behaviour for the future.

you're in my thoughts and prayers! let us know how it goes.
