Lady gaga has type 1 diabetes

When asked by my kid's friend what the difference between type 1 and 2 diabetes is, I said, "Type 2 diabetes is developed later in life. Type one is like Lady Gaga."

a reply of blank stare for a moment, then he said, "Lady Gaga is diabetic?"

My reply: "No. for type one diabetes, you are born this way"

(Genuine) My dad has been Diabetic (type 1) since he was 19

When he tells people he always says he's "diabolic" before correcting himself. 15 years at least he's been saying it and it never gets old.

Something I thought of to teach people a distinction in health. Is this a dad joke?

Idk how this came to me the other day but I was thinking, if someone has a hard time remembering the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, they can say this:

Type 1 is diabeetus of the fetus

Type 2 is diabeetus cause you eatus
