Hi ,

You may have noticed TuD hanging around the site. It's his 6th birthday this month, and his big international family of people with diabetes is growing. Our 6th birthday fundraising campaign is on! Every dollar you donate allows TuDiabetes to reach 6 people touched by diabetes, giving them the opportunity to not be alone!

Please consider making a donation, as well as asking your friends and family to give what they can. TuD's birthday party will keep getting more guests as we raise more donations (see top of the home page). Let's help keep our family thriving and growing! Please share this message. Thanks!

Hi Jean, you need to tune that radio a little better we would love to hear from you more often. It's good to hear from you.

hi Jean, how is everything with you? I just wanted to stop by to see if you've done your Big Blue Test Today. Dont' forget that every time you log a Big Blue Test $5 is donated to diabetes charities that are providing life-saving supplies and services.

If you haven't yet, go log a Big Blue Test at http://www.bigbluetest.org/. If you have, do another!

I am doing fine, I have my own struggles. I think we all go through ups and downs. It is easier when we don't feel alone. I hope you know that you can always come here for support.

Jean, Good to see you posting again. Hope you are doing well. ....brian

Hi Jean. I do like seafood, but I make sure it's wild caught. I love my avocado, but seem to have a bit of an intolerence for tree nuts. I take Evening Primrose pills for diabetic neuropathy, which may or may not help. However! Wish you could get a bit more protein in your diet, but nevermind, you're doing so well. Your weight loss is really admirable. Cheers!

Hi Jean. There you are in the land of the wild Salmon! I'm so happy for you in finding the veggie diet that has improved your health so much, but I can't help thinking a little seafood once or twice a week would also be beneficial. Anyway, congratulations on working so hard, and then doing so well as a consequence.

Hi Jean, Very pleased to be your friend. And as I said welcome back. As I sat down at my computer this morning one of the things I wanted to do was to send a request to you. Glad you beat me to it.

Hi Jean. Happy Memorial Day weekend! Best wishes.

Glad to be friends Jean. How are you? Haven't seen you here for a while. Hope you are enjoying this nice sunshine.

Hi sister - I want to thank you for sharing my joy with the nice comment on my post. It is a thrill to have this aspect of my health back!

Thanks, Jean! We are so happy to have the little guy to hold :)

Yes, it's nice to see other people also enjoy your interesting, intelligent, and often humourous comments. You have quite a way with words!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Yes, I've definitely heard of Mildred Dilling. So great you were able to learn from her! I came late to the harp, after having played piano most of my life. I started about 7 years ago. I don't play the pedal harp, but have a definite addiction to harps of all shapes and sizes.

LOL Jean, don't know about me, but totally agree about my dogs!

Jean, Thank you for the add of friendship.Please view my informative video on diabetes and dancing:) http://youtu.be/VgeEECxONJ8 I can also be found on facebook talking daily about diabetes. Feel free to request me as a friend on facebook http://www.facebook.com/Model.Cabaretro.Amanda.Lynne

HI Jean- Congrats on being a featured member. I am glad you are back to the site I like your comments. I also like the new profile pic. Very nice !!

Just read that your a classical guitarist. Does your testing affect your fingertips and playing? I play the harp. At first, I was testing directly on my fingertips and learned quickly not the best choice. :-) I've definitely found better places on the sides and it doesn't affect my playing. I'm also a great-aunt to six young ones!
