I saw Invictus about two weeks ago and I thought it was great!! I give it 4 out of 5 strips. I don't see it as a "sports movie", but as a movie about how one person, Nelson Mandela, used sports to help bring together a nation. I felt this movie was…
Yeah, I wish I could have gotten a role, too, but alas, I did not! That's okay, 'cuz I've gotten other parts...
I have now read the 2nd and 3rd book and have seen the 2nd movie. I thought the 2nd movie was well done, but a little too sappy in the b…

Hi Rebecca !
I have seen the movie (just 1st so far) and read the books and I liked them a lot (books). I read them few times over (I like to do that with books/stories I like) and they are great.... Movie is also good, but like you said it's missi…

I haven't been to specifically a Meetup event with this group, but I've been involved with JDRF for many events and always enjoy getting together with people from all walks of life with a common thread. This one sounds like a great group of people a…
Yes I just joined this group and I got an invite as well! I would really like to go. Have you ever been to one of these and if so what is it like? It sound like a blast!

Hey girlfriend,
Do you know about the OC/LA diabetic meetup group that lost its organizer??? I know that MEETUP is about to disband the group. It has about 40+ members. I am trying to find out about the group before I volunteer to take it over.

Thanks for organizing all the info. I was wondering what results we had! I really loved being a part of this event and the one on July 14 (I was crying alone in my room, but feeling a part of a larger community then....). I've always known how exerc…
Wow, now I know why I feel the way I feel.... Type 1--39 years. I have often felt the "heavy" feeling and wondered what it was! However, I was diagnosed with Dupryens (sp?) this June and it's where the tendons tighten and pull on my muscles--painful…

So, I did something very nice for myself on my biological birthday this year!!!
It just happened to be on my biological birthday, but I did a 5k walk for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation at Dodger Stadium this year!!! I was so happy to do this on my birthday, too. My friend and her three grand-daughters joined me, as well!! I met my goal and then a little more! And then just two days later got sick (I'm sure the two are not related!!). Now I look forward to World Diabetes Day and plan to wear light blue. In fact, one of my friends gave me blue earrings and barrette… Continue

My Experience With The Behavioral Diabetes Institute--the first of its kind in the U.S.A. (so they say)!!! {:D
Rebecca M. Rodick has sent you a message on TuDiabetes - A Community for People Touched by Diabetes
Hey, you all!!!!
I just wanted to let all of you know about my experience at the Behavioral Diabetes Institute's Type I luncheon which was held on Saturday, October 10, in the La Jolla (San Diego) area.
Aside from the two mistakes in driving instructions (which made me much later than I pathetically, usually am!), I had a very nice time!
The theme was Celebration of Strength and there was a gu… Continue

I feel rather silly for it now, but your comment was greatly appreciated. Thanks again, and if you don't mind, I sent you a friend request.

Thanks again!

- Hi Rebecca! I I haven't seen the book, Cloudy with A Chance of Meatballs. I heard it was cute but they should not have made a movie out of it. How can you take a picture book and make it into a full lenght movie? That is Hollywood for you.
I do not know of a Greg Shaw. I had some relatives in Salinas and Fresno. I haven't seen or heard from them since around 1981. Bill and Carol Shaw were in the Salinas area. Bill would be about 70 now. There kids would all be in there 40's. Hmmm. You never know. He might be related somehow. I know my dad's family came from Odessa, TX originally.

- Rebecca, I'm a writer with Diabetes Forecast and in an upcoming issue we're going to be featuring Terry Keelan. A photo he submitted includes you. If we decide to use that photo, is it OK with you that your photo appear in a print and possibly online edition of the magazine?
Thanks! Tracey Neithercott

Joe Brocato said… - Hi Rebecca
I grew up in Burbank,, my parents and a lot of my friends still live there, so I visit often. A meet-up sounds great. Years ago when I was a young adult we had a D social group , where we would meet for dinner and such. Many of the people from that group became close friends I see you are an Actress, one of my sons is an Actor, Take care
