The problem is, if people with diabetes have access to good medical care and supplies, and have a pretty healthy family history, and manage to keep aspects of diabetes care–blood glucose, blood pressure, blood lipids, kidney health, eye health, and not too many severe lows or highs–in control, we’re boring. We’re not good TV.
We’re just people living our lives. Challenging and complicated and courageous lives, of course. But not sensational enough for national TV.
I would like to see a blog about programs, techniques, etc., that successfully move people toward the kinds of healthful behavioral changes they want to make. Not that we SHOULD make and sustain such changes (duh, we already know that), but HOW. Thanks for keeping the dialogue going!
