American Diabetes Month 2015: Day 14 - World Diabetes Day

Day 14. Today is World Diabetes Day. I had a plan to make a really elaborate and well thought-out post for today, but I feel like there are better ways for you all (and me) to spend my day. Hopefully this post works today, if not, it'll probably post at like 5 pm tonight.

Enjoy the day, get informed, and don't judge us diabetics for poking ourselves with sharp objects, bleeding on things, and then licking the blood off of our fingers!

Breaking Down the Cost of Diabetes #dblogweek

Are there other factors such as accessibility or education that cause barriers to your diabetes care?

I will admit, I consider myself to be a fairly competent driver when it comes to driving a vehicle.
