I didn't know these guys were diabetic: Ghostface Killah from Wu-Tang Clan, Phife Dawg, rapper from A Tribe Called Quest, Sid Barett- Pink Floyd! I like all 3 groups! I've been listening to them for awhile, but I never really checked into bios of the members.
Here are some others to add to the list, but I'm not sure if they are T1 or T2
Johnny Cash
Elvis Presley
Evel Knievel
Sharon Stone
Thanks everyone, this is great! I agree that we all deserve to be listed under famous. I just wanted to create a list I could direct newly diagnosed Type1s to. To show them that Type 1 diabetes doesn't have to stop them from achieving their dreams.
