Roche Pharmaceuticals is conducting an interesting campaign right now, called "Diabetes Heroes". I was browsing through the site the other day and found our very own Manny Hernandez listed as a "Torchbearer"! Very cool. Check out Manny's profile, and the profiles of many other great diabetes advocates, bloggers, activists, researchers and more.
Reach out and we are not alone…That is so true here on TuD. I can say that since I have been a member (2yrs ) I have never in my life had so many people/friends show such unity and kindness towards me. As I say “Grateful”…I am and more than I could ever express.
Funnily enough, we also have a team of actual diabetes superheroes - Captain Glucose and Meter Boy - one has type 2, the other has type 1 (as do the actors voicing them) : http://www.captainglucoseandmeterboy.com/
