Tell your story as to why you want to become a Diabetic Angel or start your own chapter of the Diabetic Angels and maybe your story will be featured!
I want to become a Diabetic Angel because I have seen in our family the need for so many to be aware of the signs of highs and low blood sugars in order to support both my niece as well as her immediate family...it's a family disease!
How did you find the Diabetic Angels? What were you searching for?
My nieces
What is the web address of your blog or website, if any?
Thanks Mollie, Love for you to hook me up with other Diabetes web sites. JDRF i have'nt visited yet. The more information and friends to help, the better. I live between Adelaide and Melbourne, 2 major cities, us country folk seem to miss out. Just to far to be actively involved, so useing the web and chat rooms help. You have a great weekend and i'll talk soon. Thanks. Rick.
Hi Mollie, It's good that a few aussie's are joining these groups, I've only been diagnosed type 1, 5 weeks ago, It's all new to me. Having hypo's every second day, just can't get the numbers right just yet. I've made a lot of over sea's friends due to Diabetes. The support groups seem to be bigg in the USA, Australia is catching up. Great to have you as a friend. Thanks. You keep in touch. Talk soon. Rick.
Hi Molly--It's Michelle Christy. It was great meeting you a few weeks ago at Adele's. We had such a nice time visiting with you. Thanks for all of the helpful info!!
Alli just signed up to be a Diabetic Angel. Such a great idea. She's been walking around the house with the Diabetic Angels card singing "if we were big and rich...everyday would be a fun day etc". She asked if we could write Mollie and Jackie a note before bed. We FINALLY did! --just a quick note...Alli just told me a few things she wanted me to type to them. It was pretty cute...I left out the following: "I look just like you- except your hair is curlier; I want to play the guitar with you someday--I just decided that I am going to need to take lessons so we can have a play date and play the guitar; why are you singing about being rich???--people will like you just the way you are..."mom, do they mean that they want to get rich to raise money for the researchers to find a cure"....etc! It was SO funny--I wish I had recorded it all!!!
Hope you are having a wonderful summer!!
Talk to you soon!
