ACtually Type 2 Diabetes "adult onset", is much more genetic than type 1. It's an autoimmune process where your own antibodies mount an attack on the insulin producing cells of the pancreas. So many type 1 diabetics actually don't have a history of other family members with diabetes, esp of type 1. But there may be a family history of other autoimmune diseases, such as vitiligo, hypothyroidism, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.

How do diabetes happen?
well it depends. i myself have type one daibetes. in my case and my brothers they dont know how it happened. no one else in our past family has had it. when i was diagnosed at age 14 the doctors believed that i could have caught a cold that triggered it but not the reason i have it. \diabetes type one is where your body attacks the pancreas and it eventually stops producing insulin. Insulin takes the energy you get from food and transports it to your cells. type two diabetes is where you are unhealthy/overweight. there is no cure for diabetes but there are new ways of controlling it. no one knows why people get type one diabetes but to help people like me and many others that have diabetes donate to JDRF (juvanial diabetes research foundation)
