hi all.. any advice out there about how homelessness shelters should behave to type 1 diabetics.. the short of the story I was having a bad hypo.. that day I had 5 so used all my quick acting, the rules are stay in your room 11PM TO 0730am.. I had bread and stuff in my cupboards but were in the kitchen so I asked the night staff if I could do some toast after explaining I was having a hypo and needed more food.. to my surprise he told me to go back to bed.. until I told him id probably die if I did.. the next day I had a right dressing down from the accommodation manager who verbally attacked my management of my diabetes and would not bend on the rules.. would the forum say they've broken the equality act in some way... especially making a judgment on my personal management of my illness.. regards ben
