100+ Members on 1HappyDiabetic

Posted by Bill on September 14, 2009 at 12:33 PM

Hooray!  We did it.  We have over 100 members on1HappyDiabetic in little over a month with our new site design.  I want to thank all of our members for your great comments, forum posts, videos, and pictures that add value and smiles to everyone that views them.  Our enthusiasm for positive diabetes education, social value, and change has reached many diabetics and their families.  It’s nice to laugh and feel welcomed with the struggles we face every day. 


A very special thanks to Suzanne Watts who has helped with the development and creation of this amazing site.  I am so lucky to have found such a special and talented friend that was willing to put her time and effort towards an idea that started a little over 2 years ago.  Thank you.


I also wanted to thank everyone who has helped spread the1HappyDiabetic message around the internet and contributed towards the contentof this site.  Thanks to; Kenny Kellner, Michael, Lorraine & Caleb, Katherine Marple, Clark V, DlifeMamma, Dene, Leon, Andy, Colette Henry, MelindaMonks, Fred, whatever1210, Argarcia1, and Cecilia.  I know I have left many out, but thank you all for adding your thoughts and creative videos.  Suzanne and I are truly honored.


1HappyDiabetic.com is growing and spreading that positive attitude we all need in our lives.  This little community is growing and I am so excited.  We hope to progress even further in the years to come.  With justa little help from our friends with Diabetes I am sure we can.  We look forward to hopefully expanding our “1HappyDiabetic” name and logo in the future (we are saving up as we speak) so we can be a recognized entity in this amazing Diabetic Online Community we are involved in.


We always welcome any ideas, suggestions, and involvement onhow we can make this site better.  One of our members Fred asked for a way to display his involvement in the JDRF to share with others.  So we created our new events calendar to display events and diabetic engagements our members would be attending.  Hopefully we will be able to have 1HappyDiabetic meet ups in the near future.


So cheers to 100 and hundreds more!


Your Diabetic Buddy,


Bill

dear bill,
thank you for your you tube video on the insulin injections, it really helped me (a needle phobic) overcome my first insulin injection.
