What's wrong with Birdie


The following conversation just took place between by 6yr old diabetic and her twin sister. It was in regards to her hospital stay (3 yrs ago) when she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

Bird "Remember when I was in the hospital and you got to sleep over at grandma's

and I didn't?"

Cricket"Yeah, I'm sorry you didn't get to sleepover. Why were you at the hospital?"

Bird "Something was wrong with me."

Cricket "What was wrong?"

Bird "I don't remember."

Cricket "When you remember, tell me."

Apparently the only traumatic part of that fateful weekend was the fact that her sister got to sleep at grandmas and she didn't. She still doesn't even know there is something wrong with her. I'm not going to be the one to tell her.
