As I was poking my finger earlier today, I realized who (what) my diabetes mascot has to be: Pokey, the finger! Its features are red, of course.
My fingers provide blood samples multiple times a day for checking blood glucose levels. They text, dial, type, prepare food, count, inject. I am very dependent on my fingers, and, therefore, it just makes sense.
Thanks, WEGO, for a quick and easy prompt today.
