'My friend wants me to cover up my medical equipment at her wedding - I refuse'

A soon-to-be maid of honour has found herself in an uncomfortable position after the bride-to-be asked that she keep her necessary medical equipment covered up on the day of her wedding.

According to this 22-year-old woman, she was recently diagnosed with type one diabetes, and so has to wear a small sensor on her arm in order to monitor her blood sugar.

She isn't in any way self-conscious about her sensor, and says watching her "strong" grandmother have one herself has really helped her. If anyone asks about it, then she's more than happy to answer any questions and improve general understanding.
