"It's All About Your Attitude"

November is Diabetes Awareness Month and on the 14th of this month, we have World Diabetes Day to look forward to.  There are over 250 million people who are affected by diabetes worldwide.  Yet little is mentioned in the American media about this epidemic affecting so many of us.  As you know, diabetes is a 24/7, never ending challenge we deal with.  Let's all take a personal pledge to educate others this month about diabetes and dispel the many myths that surround this disease!  Raising awarenes can bring us closer to a cure!

According to WorldDiabetesDay.org,  "the World Diabetes Day logo is the blue circle - the global symbol for diabetes which was developed as part of the Unite for Diabetes awareness campaign. The logo was adopted in 2007 to mark the passage ofthe United Nations World Diabetes Day Resolution. The significance ofthe blue circle symbol is overwhelmingly positive. Across cultures, the circle symbolizes life and health. The colour blue reflects the sky that unites all nations and is the colour of the United Nations flag.The blue circle signifies the unity of the global diabetes community inresponse to the diabetes pandemic."
