I had seen the early symptoms of diabetes in my 15-year old niece. We were on our way home from a vacation trip and my niece was riding with us. From time to time she would ask for a drink and later she would request a stopover for the rest room. In that 2-hour drive my niece had finished a 2-liter bottle of soda plus 1 liter of water.
Her father is a physician and her mother is a nurse. She was brought to the hospital on the next day for a checkup. The doctor had her confined for more than a week. She was pronounced to be a juvenile diabetic. The symptoms are frequent thirst and urinating, feeling weak when hungry and constipation. Those symptoms were not reported by my niece to her parents. It was fortunate that we had witnessed the symptoms and had reported it to her parents. That was 15 years ago. Now my niece is on insulin shots but she is still looking good.
