Diabetes is really no joke to anyone, or at least it shouldn't be. But with my family we take my dad's diabetes so seriously. Always checking up on him making sure he's eatting and snacking enough to keep himself at a safe level. I know what it fe...

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 decided to become a Diabetic Angel when I was added as a friend to the DA myspace page. I decided to because I found what the DA does and stands for very insperational. This is because they give information lots of families like my own did not have access to when deaking with a family member who has Diabetes.

I'm Scared...and Hypoglycemic :(

As everyone knows from previous posts here and talking to me, my dad is a type one diabetic and when I was ten years old I brought him around from a hypo purely by chance!

Just today I was di… Continue

I don't admire it in a way that I wish I had it, more to the fact I admire t… Continue

The Life As The Daughter Of A Diabetic

I never was one to really shoot for sympathy when I was a kid but people always used to think I had it easy. I didn't and to this day I still don't.

The hospital constantly stipulating lifestyle changes. My mam once told me this story of what happened to my dad when he got diagnosed.

He was just lying in the hospital bed

So now i inject insulin every morning and before every meal. prick test about 10 times a day. Whatching numbers. I'm still having hypo's every second day. Big learning cuve. So i hope everything is going ok over your way. Thanks for accepting my friendship and keep in touch. Talk soon Rick.
