very true! its proven that diabetics can live longer healthier lives than non diabetics if they take care of themselves. i am glad to see the girl from american idol doing the one touch commercials. i know she keeps pretty quite about it but shes a good role model. she doesnt use diabetes as a crutch or for sympathy and she make it to second place in idol which shows that you can do anything even with diabetes and shes young so it will reach that demographic.

Hi Amy, thank you for reaching out to me! I'd love to be interviewed as part of your website. I love the idea of focusing of women & diabetes. I do believe we have a unique set of challenges to deal with. Please let me know how and when I can contribute! : )

Fantastic, Amy! I just emailed our producer to be sure the studio is available that day/time. I would love an e-copy of your book. My email address is:
heather@yourdiabetespartners.com and our program can be heard at www.transformingdiabetes.com if you want to listen in to hear what we're like :) before we talk with you. Your feedback would be super, too. I'll be in touch soon! Thank you for making the time to talk with us. We look forward to it! Heather

Great Amy!
Tuesdays are great for us too. What about Tues. June 21 at 1:30 PM our (pacific) time - is that 4:30 your time? Could I get a copy of your book in advance? Is it available yet?
Thanks! If that date doesn't work we'll have to look into July, as I'll be at ADA in San Diego then on vacation. Thanks, Heather
