My brain is frantically trying to process all of the magic that I experienced, and I’ve been crazy busy catching up on home stuff. I feel like I need a good solid week of quiet time just to pull myself together. As I work through everything, I’d like you to take a look at Kerri’s recent blog post about the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). At the 2011 Roche Summit, just weeks before the Friends for Life conference, we met with both Isabella Platon, Head of Communication for IDF, and Jean Claude Mbanya, President of the IDF. I hope you get a sense of how much impact they had on us and that you start to pay more attention to them.  One easy place to start is with their “O is ...

Are you following me? We all know as diabetics we prick our lil’ ol’ fingers and make sure that we keep our blood sugar levels within “normal” limits approximately 4 times a day. The typical, and I say typical because I know that every diabetic is different, is to check our blood glucose in the morning before breakfast, before we eat our lunch, before we eat our dinner and then once before we turn in for the night. Due to some new research and a report titled “Guideline for management of Postmeal Glucose” that was carried out for The International Diabetes Federation we may need to be pricking our fingers even...

Moreover, WDF president Professor Pierre Levebre says Africans are much more likely that people living elsewhere to suffer from diabetes-related conditions. One reason? Poverty. Far too few people living in sub-Saharan Africa go without the quality of care that people in the developed world take for granted. Access to doctors is so limited and expensive that many people are not even being diagnosed, let alone receiving the most basic treatment. When they are diagnosed, it is not uncommon for patients to be unable to access or af...
