Well two children have developed a game which explains all the problems and associated steps to explain diabetes. This game was developed by Martha Barroso, a type 1 diabetic and her brother Rudy Barroso, Jr.
Why did they develop it, you may ask? Martha was diagnosed with diabetes at the tender age of nine. She is fifteen now and uses a mini-pump.
