Over at the Hart Empire Network (where I maintain a Battling Arthritis blog), the Battling Diabetes blog has recently been took over (from Hart) by a new writer: Julie E. Fletcher.




In her first post, Julie wrote:

My own personal experience with diabetes began when I was seven years old. My mother was thirty-two and had just been informed that she would need to take insulin shots to control her sugar levels. I remember watching her uncap her needles and asking her why she needed to take a shot. It was fascinating to a child that age to watch someone give themselves an injection.

I want to share my knowledge, offer insight for other caregivers, and inform you of innovations on the medical front against diabetes. I sincerely hope that you will join me in this battle against diabetes and that I can help you accept your diabetes so you can avoid the fate of my mother.
