Seriously ... is this a joke?

Well DriveOn, you will learn more here to help you from the people who live it 24/7 than the ADA will ever know. now if you want to learn fund raising and self service well then ADA may be a good outfit to learn from. Now there are a lot of great resources out there here is a good one to start with, http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/ then when you are ready people will give you additional sites, what will work for you will be buried in there, you just need to find what works for you, each of us is different in how we control, and how we react to different foods and methods. This is, in my opinion, why the medical field in general is so ignorant on diabetes, there is no one way for everyone. the closest would be Dr Bernstein http://www.diabetes-book.com/ that man has it down to a science.
