Indeed it is. My grandmother was type II, just part of her getting older. My father and my sister both are type I (also referred to as juvenile diabetes), but the weird part is that neither of them were diagnosed until their early 20's. Where as my son was diagnosed when he was 4. None of these people were obese, or even overweight. Juvenile diabetes is on the rise though. I could go on as to why think this happening, but we've hijacked this thread enough.
