What is one thing you would tell someone that doesn’t have diabetes about living with diabetes? Let’s do a little advocating and post what we wish people knew about diabetes. Have more than one thing you wish people knew? Go ahead and tell us everything.

Tell us what your Fantasy Diabetes Device would be? Think of your dream blood glucose checker, delivery system for insulin or other meds, magic carb counter, etc. etc. etc. The sky is the limit – what would you love to see?

We probably all have one thing we could try to do better as far as our diabetes management goes. Why not make today the day we start working on it. No judgments, no scolding, just sharing one small thing we can improve.

Living with diabetes (or caring for someone who lives with it) sure does take a lot of work, and it’s easy to be hard on ourselves if we aren’t “perfect”. But today it’s time to give ourselves some much deserved credit. What is one diabetes thing you (or your loved one) does spectacularly! Fasting blood sugar checks, oral meds sorted and ready, something always on hand to treat a low, or anything that you do for diabetes. Nothing is too big or too small to celebrate doing well!

For the second year in a row Diabetic Connect is participating in Blog Week which starts today May 14th and will continue on throughout the week. This gives us all an opportunity to share our thoughts and opinions on topics that people with diabetes everywhere are coming together online to discuss. below is the link to the discussion for day one. There will be a new discussion topic each day so watch out for it so that you can weigh in on these great topics.
