My twenty something daughter just got back from hanging out with an old friend from D camp, who's now at college. She wants to marry him, yeah, they're good friends and all, but as she says "Mom, t's just so cool to hang out with someone that needs to stop and do BG checks, and also loads up his backpack for a hike with fruit role ups and like costco sized cereal bars. ".
I don't think she's going to marry him, I think they just reconnected and are rekindling a friendship, but she asked me if I ever hung out with other PWD, and it hit me, aside from getting together for maybe a bite to eat, or a JDRF/ADA gatherng, I never really have hung out with another PWD,
I really feel like I must have missed out, between not going to D camp, and never really hanging ut with a fellow D, can't we re-create a D camp, for grown ups that never had the chance to go though????
