Kurt, illness

[anonymous]

Kurt is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. He accepts it, deciding it's no big deal. He thinks it'll just help him stay in better shape.

But as the weeks go by he realises how much he's going to miss out on. He feels like it shouldn't be such a big deal, like he should just suck it up. But it sucks, and he's so angry and depressed that he can't even have a candy bar.

uhm you can have a candy bar when you have type one diabetes... I should know, what sucks about diabetes is the things you can't do, the countries you can't visit because they don't have the medicine to treat you. And low blood sugar.

OP

I know they can. My mother has it. But she refuses to even allow herself a candy bar because she's scared and because she doesn't want to slip up and let it continue. That's what I meant.

Re: OP

Can you explain this prompt a little better? You said Kurt is "angry" because he "can't". It is proven that he technically can so it's not about "can't", it's about won't. Wouldn't that make Kurt fearful, not angry, like you said your mother is? I'll fill this, if you'd like, but I'm not sure what ya mean, sweetie. ^_^

Re: OP

I think what the OP means is that Kurt's so scared he'll slip up or something, that that fear is stopping him from doing things he used to do, like having a candy bar. He feels like it shouldn't be a big deal, but later on as he doesn't get used to his situation, it's making him feel like he can't do things. And missing out on those things makes him depressed and angry - angry with himself or angry with his situation, etc.
