Help increase Diabetes Awareness
2 Years In... 8 months ago

I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes on November 9, 2006. When I was in the hospital, I was given needles, a prescription for insulin, a meter and that was about it. For months, I looked around to find people who were diabetic to try to answer my questions. A friend of mine started a site for people who were diabetic, lived with a diabetic or knew someone with this condition. I was so tired of listening to people who were telling me how sorry they were. To me, I was a person who just happened to have diabetes, and not a diabetic hoping to make a life for myself. That was so great about this site. There were others there who were diabetic and were willing to help me to learn.

Since then, I’ve worked hard to raise awareness about diabetes. Please join me if you can at:

www.diabeticrockstar.com

Please make your voice heard and support us for World Diabetes day on November 14th.



Invite others to share their favorite and/or dream places to stay (feel free to join in!)
I used to live here... 2 years ago

This is one of my very favorite places on the planet! Grand Anse Beach, Grenada, West Indies. It is considered one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world. Sad thing is, when you live there, you tend to take it for granted. Now, it’s a dream to go back!



try sushi
Sushi is just raw fish! 2 years ago

I’ve never been fond of raw anything, especially fish. I wouldn’t discourage anyone else from trying it, but it’s just not my cup of tea (grin…pun intended)
