So, when a new student was brought into her classroom, Mrs. Nelson was delighted because she learned that this young man knew something that everyone needed to know. She said that Adam was just like everyone else, except for one thing - he had diabetes. "Would you like to explain that to us, Adam?" Adam proceeds to explain his disease with its the difficulties, dangers, and the discomfort of being different from other kids. Wise Mrs. Nelson praises Adam to his classmates, "Adam has faced a difficult situation and handled it. He is an example of someone who has tremendous self-discipline. Anyone who has that can do anything!" Adam left school that day with a new spring in his step and a classroom full of new friends.
