🗣 Raising awareness of among our elected officials. There are different types. Type 1 is an autoimmune, incurable, non-hereditary, non-genetic disease that can be diagnosed at any age and can affect anyone. It is not related to what you have eaten or your activity.

More than 20 year old directives, based on misunderstanding, preconceived ideas, & the medical advances of the time, prohibit more than 200 on the simple "fault" of carrying this condition (army, police, prison service, rescue, transportation, seafarers, civil aviation...). A dog can get into the police, I can't. Spare us this double punishment, don't make us sub-citizens, we demand the same as all .

Create a with a fraction of the 115 billion euros needed each year to treat diabetes & its complications in Europe. Save 700 million people living with (projection in 2030).
