Thank you for the warm welcome! I took your advice and posted the two blog entries I had on my blog when my little girl was diagnosed and a couple of weeks following. I hope to find time soon to blog again on our life 5 weeks after diagnosis. I feel a real calling with this disease. The need is more awareness in the public on what type 1 REALLY is. I am frustrated at the pretty, soft magazine ads for monitors and television ads showing how easy life is with their product! No wonder the general public doesn't take this disease seriously. There have been countless movies about people suffering with cancer, MS and many other diseases that show the reality of pain and suffering that come with the disease, but nothing has been done to show the world the madness that comes with the constant calculating, monitoring, measuring, finger pricking, injecting and absolute life saving measures that happen around the clock each and every day with Type 1 diabetes! I want to get this world educated on the depth of this disease! There would be more financial contributions if people saw the reality of how we live. I'm on a quest now, to rid the ignorance the media has caused and open the eyes of everyone who thinks diabetes is "No problem" and "manageable". Yes, it's manageable, but it is the managing that encompasses your life. Without constant, persistant managing, the diabetic dies - simple as that. To me, the mother and care taker, I don't find this to be "No problem" (as someone casually put it), I want the public to understand this disease so more people will be willing to help find the cure to our daily shots that literally keep her alive!

I thank God that i am better now though and recovering. I have fast started putting things in place to start work on the project. I just wanted to ask a few questions such as what Basal means i see a lot of people talking about their basal on line. Also wish to find out how the CGM works. We dont have such technology for diabetics here in Nigeria but these are some of the things i hope to change in the nearest future. Thanks and hope to get a reply from you soon. I hope to start my blog very soon too.

At 5:38am on April 9, 2009, Ron DeNunzio said…: Jackie, The camp you are talking about is in our plan though I am not sure when. I truely understand what you are saying. We really want to work with 19-25 year olds also. Our first goal is to make this camp right for kids and then if funding is coming in move forward. Thanks for everything you do and good luck!

At 2:05am on April 2, 2009, Rosemary Ekeng said…: Hi Jackie, i haven't been active here for a while now. I was very ill and was down for about three weeks. I had resistant malaria, and my sugar was all over the place and very high. I am a bit better now and have started work on the DA chapter here in Nigeria. Will keep in touch.

thanks for getting back to me
i have been to your daughters websites and it helps alot...i have to go somewhere positive everyday just to get through the day...and mollie and jackie are usually the ones who help...it doesnt matter if i reread the same thing :-) its just nice to see them smiling and happy
there are so many questions i dont know where to start or where to go for help...hopefully the days will get better, i just had a baby on the 11th and i feel like i have been neglecting elizabeth but she is probably enjoying it LOL first question "how long does it take to get to a 'new' normal?"
