Kerri Morrone is inspiring. I love her website and sharing her journey.

My vote goes to Amylia & Judith-if it weren't for Amylia I never would have found out about this great site, and her comments and writing are so inspiring-she also has a link to this site on her blog and myspace page-always informing the masses!! And if it weren't for Judith, I wouldn't check the site nearly as much as I do-her quick wit, humor and knowledge always bring smiles and laughter into my day. Thanks to you both!

Blessed be, Rachel Joy, I was just going to nominate you and AmyliaGrace----for your courage and grace, your humor and your matter-of-fact, life-affirming perseverance in the face of difficulties that many of us can only imagine.....Gratitude flows abundantly in this discussion, doesn't it? And isn't that lovely for us all!.....

I would also second all those mentioned previously----Doris Ann and Cody who swept to my metaphorical rescue one bleak day.....Of course Jenny for all that great info, but Libby, I would be remiss if I did not thank you for giving back to me the possibility of pancakes----sometimes it is the small comforts that can save our sanity, don't you think? Elaine whose sense of irony and appropriate outrage at life's diabolical whimsey often mirror my own in middle age!

And Beth for her artistry that inspires and her patient help when I first joined. And Kathy because she manages to radiate kindness through these micro-chippie things.

Speaking of which---Chris is my Main Techie Man always cheerfully teaching the mysterious technical ways of belonging to an online community.

There are more and I shall return in time to mention them all. You asked for it, Manny, Mr. Founder Man! I believe in True Impulses. You founded this site with a True Impulse. An impulse from the heart. It is not surprising that you draw other folks with similar heart!......

Here is my nomination list since i cannot decide on just one!

Penny Harris: Penny is very creative. She is the leader of my local diabetes support group, and after I convinced her to join TuDiabetes, she created the Statesboro, GA group as a way to communicate with the other members of our local support group.

Kerri Morrone: She hired me to write a monthly article for the dLife website and she has done so much for the diabetes community.

Kathy in Minnesota: There is just some thing so special about her smile. She just radiates warmness and kindness.

Doris-Ann Dickerson: She is so friendly and supportive. I just wish she would stop hiding behind others so that I can see what she looks like!

Absolutely Doris Ann and Robert. Doris Ann because she's a no-nonsense, straight shootin', tell-it-like-it-is lady. I have a feeling if we were all at a party she'd really be working the room and talking to every single person. Robert, because of his honesty and compassion - probably gained from a near lifetime of diabetes and it's complications.

I vote for Amylia because she's AWESOME. She's a warrior in my book and always trying to push herself further in bettering herself as a diabetic and as a person.

Also Jeff, he has welcomed everyone on their profile it seems! Such a friendly and supportive guy!

Thanks Manny!
