Answer 6

Excuse me, one of the prizes is winning a diabetic life coach for one year! It's obviously for diabetics.    

Come on, how selfish are you?  You don't have a life-threatening, incurable illness. You don't get to enter this one.  Don't you get it? YOU'RE the lucky one.

Answer 7

If the rules state that you MUST be diagnosed with diabetes, then that is what it means.

  Unless you have  diabetes,then you can not enter the contest.

   Shouldn't the contest be open to anyone? No, it's their contest, they can make the choice who they want to enter it.

  I am sure there is a good reason why it is only open to people with diabetes, it's their contest,their rules.

   This should go without saying but if someone did enter it and won that didn't have diabetes, I doubt they would be able to claim the prize, I am sure they will want proof, by a doctor, that you have this condition.
