EVIE Cousins was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the age of 11. Now 13, she is among more than 2,500 people living with Type 1 diabetes in Oxfordshire, and 300,000 across the UK.
Evie knows she was lucky to be diasgnosed** as quickly as she was.
Her weight had plummeted to below four and half stones and doctors revealed that just two more weeks without treatment could have seen her slip into a coma and die.
She explained: “I can never forget how ill I was. I thought I was dying.

** looks like a misdiagnosis to me! 😉
I would have been dead if I'd waited longer than 5 days, never mind two weeks. Where do they get these figures from?
