Way to break my heart 11 year old...

Nick's homeroom students all have to do "About Me" posters and share them with the rest of the class. One of the parts of the poster is "My Biggest Wish". Since I was helping out in his classroom today, playing with his classroom library again, I poked through them. Most students wrote about having lots of money, but one of his students wrote, "That Diabetes didn't exist"

Nick of course is going to tell this kid that he doesn't have to share that part with the whole class if he doesn't want to, but seriously, kid, break my goddamn heart. Including this kid, there are 3 type 1 sixth graders and another in eighth. Nick's taken an interest in this kid to help him with his pump and other advice, for the obvious reason.

This of course is after the hilarious conferance where the mom pulled out a bunch of paperwork on recognizing low blood sugars and such, and nick answered by pulling out his pump and saying he understood.
