have doctors test patients for Diabetes when they are experiencing flu like symptoms. Diabetes Awareness is a must.

Created by S.R. on February 23, 2014

Everyday in America kids go to the Doctors office with excessive thirst, going to the bathroom frequently, and throwing up constantly. Everyday in America kids get sent home from the Doctors office with "Flu-like" symptoms. I know because this happened to me. Later on kids get sent to Emergency rooms almost in comas because they do not have "flu-like" symptoms but instead have Diabetes. It is time we make a change. It is time we make sure that Doctors don't stop when kids have symptoms like the flu. It is time they make sure their patients are tested for Diabetes. It is time we make a change, make a difference, make sure kids don't go home without proper treatment. It happened to me to a point where Child Services was at my bedside. Lets change the way Doctors look at symptoms of a flu.
