The Hospital, an episode on young diabetics on Monday 16th August on Channel 4 (May Day Hospital, Croydon)
I was dreading but also looking forward to this programme, as i was intrigued as to how they portrayed us, but i also knew it might anger me. I didnt actually manage to watch it on the Monday night, but managed to catch up on wednesday night.
Well to be honest i have mixed feelings about that programme. I feel they did a good job of scaring people, but then i feel they should have worded some parts better. I do feel it fitted in with the whole series, including stab victoms and liver damage due to alcohol abuse. I feel that they did portray all diabetics to be like this, and I dont feel this will help the opinions of people who already know so little about diabetes.
