Diabetes, cancer, autism. They are all different. A look at why…

I am autistic. I have diabetes, and I have had diabetes for nearly as long as I have been autistic (in other words, I have had diabetes for the majority of my lifetime). I have cancer, and have been affected by cancer for significant periods of time. Now, alarm bells might go off when I associate all three of these things, but there is a reason I am linking them in this writing. This reason should be carefully considered by readers.

A warning for readers who might be weak of stomach: in the text below the link, I have included images of what I will refer to here as “medical doom”. These show parts of people including myself after a visible part of their person has fallen victim to the actual diseases mentioned in the title, or complications thereof. They are very hardcore. If you feel upset at the mere sight of the faked deaths in Hollywood films, then for fukk’s sake, disable images in your web browser before reading the text below. However, these images might also help you grok what I am trying to tell you.

(One of) The worst day(s) of my life…

April 4, 2012 is going to go down in history as one of the top ten worst days I have had in my lifetime. In order to understand how heavy this is, you need a table for comparison. I mean, sure, people profess that this or that day has been the worst that they have had in their life all the time. Especially when their age is somewhere between ten and twenty, and their intelligence quotient is closer to 90 than 120. So I am going to tell you a couple of stories here to give you some precise context and meaning.
