Lauren -

I just came across Tu Diabetes thru Ning.com and was curious to see if you feel communities like this have had a controlling impact on your diabetes. I have been a type 1 diabetic for 11 years.'

What do you plan on doing with your thesis after you finish school.

Great Idea.

Hah, I meant the other patients. For some reason I'm the only young active diabetic in my clinic. It's so depressing going there when you're the only one who can walk unaided. I suppose it's because there are so many Type II's and a lot of them are a lot older, but still....

Hi! Thanks for the comment, it is so good to find a community of people with diabetes who are young, active and all that. Makes such a change from my hospital clinic!

Hi There! Thanks for adding me as a friend! Your project sounds incredibly interesting, I hope you are able to share more sometime. Similar to Joe if you need some Marketing advice I would be more than happy to lend some help. Anything to help make our lives and the people after us better!

Take care,
