Carolyn,
I wanted to make you aware of the TuAnalyze application we've launched on TuDiabetes, which is now mapping averages of A1c values in the US and Canada...
http://www.tudiabetes.org/forum/topics/tuanalyze-now-mapping-canada

Actually, once we get more people in Canada to participate in the project, provinces there will begin to light up.

Here's how you can enter your A1c on TuAnalyze:
-Click on this link: http://www.tudiabetes.org/profiles/profile/apps
-You will be taken to your My Apps page.
-Give it a few seconds. At the top, you will see something similar to this image.

-Click on the button and follow the rest of the instructions on the screen.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Welcome to the parents of kids with type 1 group.
