I may have decided to make Diabetes a lifelong project. During the five years that I committed to finding a cure for Diabetes, a lot of progress was made in advocacy, technology, research. But I personally know two people who have diabetes type I and I feel like that's two people too many. The costs associated with diabetes is astronomical. Maybe I feel like I should have done more, that I haven't done enough.
I haven't posted half of what I should on this blog, but I really don't know what I'd post that anyone else isn't already posting or working or has a slant on already.
I did find out one of my friends from church who I knew a long time spoke up in testimony about the disease which I didn't know that she had. It was a cold reminder that the disease needs to be cured. We let these things like life, get in the way of saving a millions of lives. Tragic, really. If all our thought power combined for one thing don't you think I would be cured in a year, if not one, two or three? And it can't be only the people who have the disease. Every one has hangups and gets used to a disease and thinks that the disease is personal and they know the disease better than anyone else. And they do, in their own bodies, for a fashion. But we need to look outside for the cure to this one. More objectivity is needed. Anyway. I love a good roast, and if it's a disease that is roasted, so much the better.
