My daughter attended her first D camp this past summer and had a wonderful time. She can't wait for next year.shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895190983814591749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-32980918414479830802010-11-09T13:27:49.109-06:002010-11-09T13:27:49.109-06:00Having been diagnosed at the ripe age of 29 I didn...Having been diagnosed at the ripe age of 29 I didn't get the joy of going to Dcamp. That being said, I'm totally up for an adult Dcamp and Dprom! That means dress shopping!!!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14726638380884202051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-16329986935819592622010-11-09T06:55:04.908-06:002010-11-09T06:55:04.908-06:00When I was in grade school, all my friends were go...When I was in grade school, all my friends were going to Conservation Camp (I live in KY) and I wanted to go with them. BEGGED to go. My mom said I couldn't but I COULD go to D-Camp instead. That was such a slap in the face at that time. Why on EARTH would I want to go to a camp about this horrible thing I had happen to me? Where the focus was ALWAYS on it? <br /><br />Looking back, and hearing about others that had gone, I wish I had taken her up on the offer. Maybe I would have gotten out of the denial stage faster. Maybe I would have met other kids my age that "got it" and I wouldn't have had to be "that girl".Stephanienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-31894844599262495242010-11-09T06:40:22.794-06:002010-11-09T06:40:22.794-06:00Your post yesterday was surprisingly hard for me t...Your post yesterday was surprisingly hard for me to read because I know how positive and upbeat you are, and this made knowing you had been so sad at one point hard for me to think about. You're kind of like my diabetes rock. :) You reached out to me before anyone else and that has left an indelible mark on my life. So for that, I thank you, Kim. <br /><br />I wish that I could have gone to D-Camp. I wasn't diagnosed until adulthood so I missed out on this. I have thought about what it would be like to have a camp for adults, and wondered if something like that existed. It would be awesome if this could happen somehow. I'd sign up in a heartbeat! <br /><br />In conclusion, thanks for being your awesome self. :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510534969948745738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-43636318121820904222010-11-08T22:32:09.442-06:002010-11-08T22:32:09.442-06:00Can we have face painting and kissing booths at d-...Can we have face painting and kissing booths at d-prom?

In fact i've been toying with the idea of apply for a pepsi grant to create one, but don't know if it is a project I want to take on all alone. <br /><br />D-prom sounds fun too.Mrs. Harerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04217853524675322625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-2779687587778589552010-11-08T21:17:35.095-06:002010-11-08T21:17:35.095-06:00I'm all about camp and dprom both.

It was the only time I went, but it was fun. I also remember the "normal" feeling. <br /><br />Camp is a week-long fun-filled event. I'm thinking s'mores, bonfires, making up ridiculous constellations, sleeping in sleeping bags, carnivals, karaoke, and new pen-pals. <br /><br />Dprom involves me getting prettied up for a night of wild dancing, temp basal rates, giggles, and all around fun. I want to wear a sparkley dress!<br /><br />In other words... I wants and I likes!Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00936612841692381512noreply@blogger.com
