What's the First Thing That Pops Into Your Head...

I'm taking a class this week for work. On Tuesday we had a section dealing with diabetes.

I'm something of an expert.

The instructor, a Medical Doctor, asked the class if anyone had a family member with diabetes. I raised my hand. He pointed to me and said, "What's the first thing that pops into your head about diabetes?"

I froze. My head was immediately flooded with thoughts.

The instructor yelled, "Pick something."

"Insulin" I replied and he moved on to the next person.
