Diabetes Health has always been committed to building a compassionate and supportive world-wide community in diabetes education and information. We believe all people with diabetes can be provided with the help needed to reach treatment success.
We know you have hard-earned diabetes wisdom and we want you to share it with our web audience. Please join us as a professional or lay diabetes advisor in one of our Diabetes Health website rooms.
Our website is logically broken down into numerous content rooms where learning about specific diabetes issues and solutions is easy. We plan to make these and future rooms even more interactive. This will be a place where individuals can get diabetes assessments and treatment option information on every topic.
We’re asking you to choose the content room you’re the most qualified for and feel the most passionate about. Then you’ll work with Diabetes Health and other volunteers to provide a short overview and a list of solutions for people interested in your topic.
It’s a win-win proposition both for people with diabetes and diabetes healthcare professionals. In addition to our unflagging support and appreciation, you’ll receive increased exposure for your projects and written works to our 2.28 million (and growing!) annual audience.
You can sign up right now at www.diabeteshealth.com/apply. Once you log in or register, you’ll see a list of website rooms and you can make your selection.
Join us. Anyone who’s passionate about improving the state of diabetes care is welcome.
Together we can make a difference.

July 27, 2008 marked the eighth full month that my son has not used insulin. His last A1c was 5.9%, on July 9, 2008. On August 14th of this year, it will be one year since he was originally diagnosed with type 1. As you know, he was taken off insulin on November 27, 2007, about a month after getting the experimental drug teplizumab. I don't know if it is the drug or not, but others have taken it with good results. It will be interesting to see if they ever get the drug approved and can use it quickly on newly diagnosed type 1s.
