I am sharing this amazing post as part of my last blog post in 2015. This was a fantastic year during which I discovered people like Susan Guzman, Riva Greenberg, and others who share my belief in the power of words. I’m seeing subtle changes in the words people are using related to health, and I’m hearing conversations about the importance of making these changes. The messages we send – as people with diabetes and diabetes care providers – do make a difference.
If you haven’t already done so, please watch the video “You Can’t Eat That!” and join the movement. My hope is that 2016 will be a year of progress and change. I realize it’s a gradual process, but together we can and will move forward.
Happy New Year!
