Guest guest Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I decided to join this list because I knew I might learn something new and if I started having problems and a bad day, I hoped to find support. I think we all need to talk to each other about diabetes. I feel some kind of a relief that I'm not running from it any more.
