Q137: Why does my cousin (aged 7) have to have diabetes?

This is very hard for a family to have to bear and I cannot give you an answer. God did not give your cousin his or her sickness. God loves children very much. Jesus never spoke harshly of children – ever. Nobody can truthfully answer your question – along with many others like it. Humans just do not know, but may find a cure one day. Beware of people who say they know – and maybe can even cure it – for money, in advance of course.

Maybe one day a scientist/researcher will discover a cause because there are thousands of chemicals in our environment – in food, air and water and I am suspicious of many of them. Have a look at Q. 108 about poisons in the National Geographic magazine. Not very pleasant reading – sorry!
