Can't wait for more:twilightsmile:

Interesting story, I'm looking forward to see the next chapter. However, there are some mistakes (mainly typos and missing commas):

"I am glad you are finaly awake, Pinkie"

finally

"hmmm..." The doctor rubbed his chin, "Okay let's start from the beginning. When you eat the food the part of it inside you is being broken down into glucose which is better known to you as the sugar. The sugar is the main source of energy for the body. Glucose is transported through your whole body in blood to power the cells, but to be transported it needs a harmone called insulin. In your case Pinkie your body fails to use insulin properly so the sugar stays in your blood. Basicly this is a metobolic disorder."

Should be:

There's also a missing quotation mark before "And about your new lifestyle."

"First of all you will have to stay away from the things like: cookies, muffins, cupcakes, donuts, cakes and Other sweets. They contain a lot of sugar. In small dosages sugar is all right for you but this kind of food contains way too much of it and not enough vitamins and minerals."

The red comma is an Oxford comma - it's optional, but some people like it.


The commas should be also in this sentence:

The doctor, just like anybody in Ponyville, knew how much Pinkie liked sweets.

I'm not sure if it's all, and I don't have much faith in my grammar skills, so I advice you finding a proofreader/editor.

3443004 That is actually my fault. I edited this rather quickly; and only looked through it twice. I will fix it.

Will you be updating this? *looks hopeful*

6324178 Probably never, as much as I loathe the answere. Still there is always hope of me getting enough inspiration to continue it.

6324244 This story has potential. If you can write about someone like Pinkie get though this then I'm sure it would have a positive effect on those who share her situation.

Huh...... Well already this is WAY better of a direction than that one story where she kills herself via eating sugar due to her having diabetes......... Which is actually the slowest, most agonizing, and downright PAINFUL of ways you can try to off yourself with.

Ah, I remember reading this a long time ago. Wish this would continue still, it has such a great plot and the characters are portrayed wonderfully.

I got partway due to my fear of needles scaring me from switching to insulin injections for my type 2 as my doctor kept saying to do. Luckily for me it was just inflammatory pancreatitis and not my pancreas failing. Still spent a week in the hospital, and it hurt.
