November is American Diabetes Month, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA).

The CDC, however, call it the National Diabetes Awareness Month.

November is American Diabetes Month



Whichever, it just means that this month has a special attention to Diabetes in order to increase the public's awareness of this condition.

From the American Diabetes Association:

There are "many faces of diabetes." Nearly 21 million children and adults in the United States are living with diabetes, and another 54 million people are at-risk. But those aren't the only faces affected by diabetes.

If you are a parent or loved one caring for someone with diabetes, your face is in the picture too.

Every week throughout November's American Diabetes Month, the American Diabetes Association will focus on a different "face" of diabetes.
