If you recall you started this by stating
Rete "I absolutely hate being a diabetic and sometimes find myself cursing out both parents for having passed the whatever on to me and not to my sister as well.
Sally " You have my sympathies Rete but I don't believe the causes of diabetes have been shown to be genetic"
Most people here took that to mean you didn't believe it to be so. You swore at me and then stormed off like a child, yet you are now the victim

I would never decide who should be on a forum, that's just silly. I say the more the merrier, however I will continue to post in my own style, it's going to annoy some people but that's life.

You are big headed because you think you are the funniest poster on here, and so gorgeous that you can pass comment on anybody. Yet you only slag off certain posters. Why not have a pop at Big Jimmy for writing PC rubbish?

Type 2 diabetes (or maturity onset diabetes) is predominatly caused by enviromental and dietary factors.
Type 1 diabetes is generally considered to be genetic.
So you're both right. So shut the **** up. all of you you're making me twitch

PS have you found that gene yet?

The commonest type of single gene diabetes was originally classified clinically as 'maturity onset diabetes of the young' (MODY). This is a form of young-onset diabetes (typically diagnosed under 25) that is not insulin-dependent and is inherited. Since 1992, mutations in six genes have been found to cause MODY, most cases involving the enzyme glucokinase or one of three gene-regulatory proteins: hepatic nuclear factor-1a (HNF-1a), HNF-4a and HNF-1b.
In a few cases, patients with diabetes caused by mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor la (HNF-1α) gene
Of the six MODY genes identified over the past few years, one of the genes, MODY3, is by far the most common. In fact the MODY3 mutations in a gene called Hnf-1a are the most common of all genetic (monogenic) causes of diabetes
If you or someone in your family has Type 1 diabetes, you may wonder if other family members are at risk. It turns out that Type 1 diabetes does often run in families. In fact, researchers have found nearly 20 different genes that can affect your risk for developing diabetes.
Two of the best studied genes in Type 1 diabetes are the HLA region and the insulin gene. Although many more Type 1 diabetes genes exist, we will focus on these two because of their central role in the disease
