A Picture's Worth A Thousand Words

I took a picture of Brandan's supplies; meter, insulin, syringe, everything we use every time he eats. I did this for a little photo project I'm working on. Brandan wanted to see the picture in my camera, so I showed him. His reaction was, "That's me!" He's not in the photo. It's just stuff. Diabetes is more than just something he has, it's part of him. I already knew that. Maybe I already knew that he knows that. I don't know why those 2 little words, 'that's me' felt like a punch in the stomach.
