Billy ((((HUGS)))) - I hear beyond your words what you have written here of how you are feeling. I went thru’ a similar ordeal a few years ago with a job I was very passionate about (had been in it for 12 years). What is making me so confused here is that I spoke to a few Public Health Canada representatives at the IDF Diabetes Congress back in October here in Montreal about diabetes amongst our aborignals, and they gave me all sort of information on your program and seemed very passionate about the program. I am really REALLY confused/lost/mad as to why they would cut your funding as well. If you don’t mind, I’m going to do abit of investigative work on my own if you are okay with that. I have contact information for NADA - our National Aboriginal Diabetes Association and other government contacts. I’m going to ask questions, to find out why the sudden change of heart when the rest of the world seems to be increasing funding in diabetic awareness/education. Sometimes our government really makes me wonder why we Canadians are so passive!!! In the meantime, hang in there.
