WE are bigger than Oprah
I have to admit, I did not watch the Oprah show. I had good intentions but I was too busy writing a blog post about the show before it aired. I read a few post around the Diabetes Online Community and I have to be honest. I was clapping my hands and at the same time hanging my head. I am shocked at all the comments about Type 1 vs Type 2. I am not sure, maybe I’m a bit slow but what happened to the DOC? I have never been on the T-1 or T-2 bandwagon, as far as I’m concerned we all have a issue with our pancreas and would like a cure. We let Oprah’s show divide US as community. The D-OC is BIGGER than Oprah!
I woke up at 3 am on Saturday morning. I grabbed my iphone, started drawing my feelings out on the doodle buddy app. I decided to make a slide slow of my feelings (thank you, Leeann). I know we are a strong community filled with all Type’s of diabetes, we can not and should not continue to let the media divide US.
You all are my family! I don’t care what Type you have or don’t have. Let’s continue to educate, support and kill the stigma that surrounds diabetes.
Be Blessed
