Living with diabetes, especially some of its more serious complications, can be very isolating, according to Lee Nevitt, the subject of a recent short documentary film called ‘From a Different Angle’.
Lee is a Type 1 diabetic who developed severe neuropathy because his diabetes was not diagnosed for a long time. It prevents him from walking for long distances. He primarily uses a wheelchair to get around.
Due to his condition, Lee has been unable to work. He addresses many of physical and emotional issues of his disease in the documentary. He is also currently trying to raise awareness and money for the disease by embarking on a 20km wheelchair ride in England in June. He hopes to raise 1,000 pounds.
