Hi Alice
Well done for posting, you are really brave, it took me ages to pluck up the courage. I too have been diabetic for years (but not on a pump) and I remember people at primary school really not getting it, they used to say I had "bugs" and pass them around assembly which really upset me at the time, so I can understand how hard it is if others are being silly. As others have said it is probably because they do not understand and someone educating them would probably help, Keep with it and I hope you are feeling better soon xxx
