I was already a civilwar re-enactor when I became a type 2 diabetic. It scared me to be on the field after that. If for some reason my sugar were to drop would anyone know that something was wrong or would they just think I was pretending to be shot.

So in order to stay in re-enacting I became a living historian, portraying a medical officer, then I portrayed General Fitzhugh Lee, R. E. Lee's nephew. I then took a class at the guild that I'm a member of and brought that into the re-enactment scene.
