An Open Letter to Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King

In my first post for The Huffington Post, which was featured here recently, it was not my intent to critique Oprah’s show, “DIabetes: America’s Silent Killer.” But because there were so many comments made on so many blogs in the diabetes community, I felt a responsibility to do so. And so I have. You can find it here:

I want to thank you if you post a comment or tweet, or just read the article and pass it on. Like many, I pointed out the errors and called for accuracy when it comes to type 1 and type 2.

I thank all my peers for giving me the encouragement, warmth and support to have reached this vantage point, and I hope to keep speaking our piece and earning your respect.
