Please support me in the ADA St. Louis Step Out Walk

Hi friends!

Tonight is the kick off party for the ADA-St. Louis Step Out walk event in October. I am the T2 spokesperson for the walk and the Red Strider chair for the ADA-St. Louis.

I posted an event on the event board, but in case you can't find it, it's from 6-9 pm at The Old Rock House at 1200 S. 7th Blvd., St. Louis, MO 63104.

You should RSVP to Polly Klasek at the ADA, but if you didn't, don't let that stop you from coming!

Free soda and appetizers!

I would LOVE to see you, meet you,… Continue

Calling all St. Louis area PWD's!

I need my friends to help me out on this one. This would be a perfect opportunity for all the St. Louis area diabetics or PWD to get involved personally in advocacy and diabetes awareness.

Thanks to Kaycee Connell, the St. Louis diabetes Examiner, I found out about this free program. It just so happens that my endo, Dr. Garry Tobin, also promoted this program to me in May when I went for my twice a year check up.

What Eric and Garry want to do is create a community of PWD's who will volunteer… Continue

+ Walter Proehl

Hi all:

Just letting you know that my dear father-in-law, Walter Proehl, lost his fight with diabetes this afternoon (Monday).

He had another major cardiac arrest Sunday evening, and his body just couldn't hold out any longer.

I know many of you prayed for him and prayed with me while we went through this long 90 day journey to find out if he could recover from 30 years of poorly managed T2 diabetes.

We know now that we have another fellow diabetic up in Heaven on our side.

Here are the arr… Continue

Prayers for Wally Needed:

I just posted this on my blog.

An update I've sent to friends:

I'm hoping to download a song that he and Yvonne first danced to - in order to stimulate something - we know he's listening and looking. Then I'm taking the kids up there after Joe gets home from Jack's soccer game. Joe's mom, Yvonne, and his sisters, Mary and Terri, are there at the hospital now.

We take turns and shifts. Yvonne is anxious, and we're loo… Continue

Paying for Carb Overload Last Night

So, because of the snow day, I ordered pizza. Now, I can't have - really AT ALL - my favorite Chicago-style thick crust pizza that I love so dearly. So instead, I order one of our local pizzerias, one of our favorites, Cecil Whittaker's. It's very thin crust, and usually, it doesn't affect my BS in the way I'll pay for it later.

So after I've been on the Byetta, I'm thinking, wow - I feel good today, I can eat some more pizza (more than my allotted two pieces), and I do. Combined with the salad… Continue

I work for the Cooperative Extension Service out of Oklahoma State University.....we specialize in adult education on all things that impact families and agriculture. I have started seeing more and more on the use of Community Health Educators in many health areas.........especially diabetes. Did they use that term?

Yes, please send me Eric's contact info. Is he a tuDiabetes member?

Hello! Thanks for the message. I am actually in the process of transferring to STL, so I'm not there right now. I should be soon though! Maybe we can get together after I relocate. I'm not a coffee girl, so we should go somewhere you can get a coffee and I can get a diet soda! :)

Hope you're enjoying your long holiday weekend!
Kaycee
