Our wonderful community member brokenpole is in the hospital right now with a high fever and tenacious infection in his legs.  Sparky (as he's also known) is an incredibly active and supportive member of our community, so I wanted to share the news so you can send him your good thoughts, prayers, messages etc.  Sparky's wife, Sharon (aka smokinbeaver) is also a member of TuDiabetes, and I'm sure could also use our support right now.

Let's make a "Get Better" message wall in the discussion below...


Check out Sparky's photos and blog posts!  He's a real character, and a fantastic guy  :)
