When I got diabetes, a kind nurse told me about Bret Micheals, a rock musician who got on with his condition. He is reported to have said, “Look at diabetes as a blessing in this way: If you deal with it right, it will give you total awareness of your body and what your limitations are, what you can and can’t do. It may actually be an advantage, because it made me self-reliant at a young age and put me ahead of the game.”
This is what I believe in. Bret Micheals is presently in hospital with brain hemorrhage. He was due to tour later this year after the release of his solo album. Let’s hope he pulls through! Diabetics need great rock and roll heroes!
