As a mother of a type ONE diabetic teenage daughter this article is so saddening.  My daughter wants one day where she is not categorized with the sugar epidemic in America.  "Diabetes in a cup" couldn't be any more offensive to a type 1 diabetic.  She did not choose diabetes.  Her pancreas stopped producing insulin.  Her very own immune system attacks itself everyday and yet ignorant comments such as this makes headlines.  How about we highlight an article on how these kids live everyday fighting this lifelong disease.  How just last night my daughter was the most beautiful girl at homecoming sporting her insulin pump so she could enjoy her pizza with her date.  Go watch her dance ballet at a near professional level while she battles her blood sugar every minute.  Take your "diabetes in a cup" and educate yourself.
