\lLucy, you are my kind of person and we follow the same path and I loke your feelings on diabetesawareness. My concern is genuine because I was clnically dead,in Boston after driving 400 miles, with a count of 880. With my second chance I vowed to help as many diabetics as I can with my peope skills,so far reaching over 40.000 since 1977 as a ROLE MODEL who walks the walk, and talk the talk. With my 91 years of wisdom and I am learning to use a computer to increase my learning capacity. As a member of the oldest university of HARD KNOCKS, where a person never finishes their apprenticship and there is no graduation day, my guidelines to help spread the diabetes awareness, are 1. have a good diabetic specialist, 2.wear a MEDIC-ALERT bracelet, it can SPEAK for you in case of emergencies. 3, listen to your body, it tells you when to eat, sleep, rest and EXERCISE. 4.have a DIABETIC BUDDY, someone you call EVERYDAY. It can serve 2 puroposes, making someone's DAY, and could SAVE A LIFE. Be a ROLE MODEL,show by example.Also I am asking insulin users, worldwide,to join me on JULY 30, INSULIN APPRECIATION DAY, in silence and give THANKS And APPRECIATION for INSULIN discovered by BANTING & BEST, JULY 30 1921, and enabling hundreds of millions of us to enjoy a healthy lifestyle TODAY. AMIGOKIT clarence.haynes@sympatico.ca Keep In Touch.

Dear LUCY, I have an idea to celebrate INSULIN APPRECIATION DAY, JULY 30, have an AMIGO MOSAIC FEAST.It could be a buffet set up with the assistance of dietitans. Why I use the word MOSAIC is because diabetes crosses all nationalities, so I felt a buffet including all kinds of healthy foods, everyone can use, would be a surprise to those of how successful diabetics, are super healthy people. I would like this to be an annual event, worldwide, and it can.wIth my computer, at 91 is asking new members from around the world, 2 questions, WHAT DO YOUR AREA NEED and WHAT DO YOU KNOW? In TORONTO,where INSULIN was discovered, my diabetes connections, can help supply the amswers o their questions. TOGETHER with others, WE can and will make a difference? Dont forget to call 5 DIABETICS, EVERYDAY, and ask each one to call 5 DIABETICS EVERYDAY, and you will start up a diabetes social group that will support, and share ecperiences.. My gimmick I use with my people is close off each each talk with an AMIGOHUG, the laufghter that follows is natures rejuvenator. one is coming youw way? clarence,haynes@sympatico.ca
