McDonald's apologise for refusing to serve 15-year-old diabetic

James Ellis, 15, was feeling shaky and unwell but was asked to PROVE he had the condition before he was allowed to order at the branch in Yardley, Birmingham. He was eventually sold two burgers after he emptied the medical contents of his diabetic pouch on the counter. His mother Victoria Ellis said James, who was diagnosed with type one diabetes three weeks ago, had gone to the chain with four friends on Tuesday afternoon.
