Michael’s Story: Life with Type 1 Diabetes


















                   One day, I couldn’t stop throwing up. My stomach hurt




            badly, so I was taken to the hospital in an ambulance.



            Doctors tried to get my body back to normal. Nurses came


                                                                                    the act of putting medicine into the body with a needle
                                                                                 n.
                                                                                           shots
            to take blood and give me shots. I screamed every time


            they came in. (Remember that I was only five.)





                 Check


                When did Michael learn that he had diabetes?


                 He learned that he had diabetes when he was five.
