Excerpts from this book
"The call for action stirred feelings deep within,
From that moment in which I went to visit him.
There is a definite need for support systems,
Which can create healthy coping mechanisms.
So for my friend’s Dad and others that I encounter,
The words I speak should be to EDUCATE, ENCOURAGE and
EMPOWER".
"Diabetes is a mounting pandemic,
It is a disease that’s not acute but chronic.
It is defined by blood glucose levels that are high, abnormally,
And is typed by the level of insulin activity"
"According to the WHO Diabetes fact sheet,
The growing number of diabetic cases are posing a great feat.
The worldwide burden of diabetes is growing,
While the provided healthcare resources are shrinking."
