Type 1 Diabetes Funny Stories: Share Your Experiences

Sure. One time, my friend with type 1 diabetes was at a party. She was about to check her blood sugar and accidentally dropped the lancet. It bounced off a plate of cupcakes and landed right in a bowl of dip. Everyone just laughed and then helped her find a new lancet.

One sad story is about my neighbor. He got type 2 diabetes and didn't take it seriously at first. He continued his unhealthy diet full of junk food. As a result, his blood sugar levels soared, and he started to have problems with his vision. Eventually, he lost his job because he couldn't perform well due to the constant health issues.

Yes. There was a little girl with type 1 diabetes. During a school play, her glucose monitor started beeping. She just looked at it, smiled, and continued her lines. The audience thought it was part of the play and laughed. After the play, she explained what had happened and everyone thought it was really cute.

One funny gynecology story I heard was about a patient who was so nervous before her exam that she started reciting nursery rhymes to calm herself down. When the doctor walked in, she was in the middle of 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star' and the doctor joined in for a moment to ease her tension.

I remember going to the movies. I had to take my insulin shot in the dark. When I pulled out my pen, the person next to me jumped and thought I was going to stab them or something. It was really funny once I explained what was going on.

When I hit puberty, I had a growth spurt. But I wasn't used to my new height. I kept bumping into things. One time, I walked straight into a glass door because I misjudged the distance. I thought there was more space between me and the door. My friends still tease me about it to this day.

One funny potty training story I have is when my nephew was being potty trained. He was so excited about his new 'big boy' potty that he wanted to take it everywhere. One day, he dragged it all the way to the living room and sat on it while watching his favorite cartoon. He thought it was normal to use it anywhere as long as it was his potty.

Once, my friend was dating this guy who was super into fitness. He made her do these crazy early - morning workouts. One day, he dragged her to a 5 - am jog. She was so tired and grumpy that she accidentally tripped him. They had a huge fight right there on the sidewalk. It was kind of funny in a messed - up way.

In our church, there was an old lady who accidentally put her reading glasses in the offering instead of money. When she realized it later, she laughed and said God must have wanted her to see things more clearly in His way. It brought a lot of laughter during the collection time.

One funny pregnancy story I heard was about a woman who had such intense cravings that she once sent her husband out at 3 am to find a specific brand of ice cream from a store miles away. And when he finally came back with it, she took one bite and decided she didn't want it anymore. It was hilarious but also a typical crazy pregnancy craving situation.
