| I agree the ADA is a good place to start, but don't read the recent research news! Instead of promoting Dr. Faustman's work, there's an article about diabetics being more likely to suffer from Alzheimer's Disease! WHO THE BLAZES WANTS TO READ ABOUT THAT??!!! Not me, that's for sure. That's counterproductive, IMHO. I mean, how many newly DX diabetics might see that article and think, "Well, I'm going to be a senile wreck in a few years, so might as well do what I want to!" I shudder to think.
You've gotta talk about complications, no doubt, but you also have to include the success stories, too. People have to have some hope.
