EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT:

Quality support is key for every diabetic. It takes a team to keep a good diabetic in tip top shape. We keep in close contact with our doctor for regular check ups and evaluation, our diabetic clinic for nutrition and exercise support, and our foot care specialist.

“I’ve booked an appointment for today for foot care, Larry,” says Roger. “She’ll check them, trim our nails, and look after any other issues.”

“Yay! And hopefully a good foot massage if we’re lucky,” I pipe in gleefully as I jump up and down.

Resources are readily available for all diabetics. We—well, actually, Roger—regularly research online, everything from simple questions to big lifestyle changes that we may want to implement. If you don’t have access to the internet, there are still many options available for you. Roger is the info junkie; he’s continually looking for new advice, ideas, or tricks.

THE PERFECT DIABETIC CARE TEAM
