My family always had a saying "dreams turn into nightmares quickly, it takes time for a nightmare to to become a dream." one of my favorite personal quotes and seems to hold true.

I personally wanted to serve in the nav, and hopefully in a submarine, was my dream since I played Aces of the Deep at age 6. Well at age 14 or so I came down with Type 1 diabetes... that killed any dream of serving in any of the armed forces pretty darn quick.

For the record Type 1 diabetes is an auto immune disease, and a reasult of the body attacking the pancreas' cells that produce a protein called insulin and is not caused by being overweight.
