Diabetic Sun

One day when I was feeling frustrated for having to live with this annoying disease I thought “what can I do with all this trash?” I thought that it was unfair that I was the only one getting shots, so I got myself a foam ball and started stabbing it with my used needles. Finally, I had a way to take out my aggression and use my Diabetes trash for a good purpose. When the whole ball was covered I realized that this wasn’t only an outlet for my emotions, it was art.
