DM is (as I have said before), one of my “must-reads”. I discovered DM after doing a poll on diaTribe, and I have indeed found a “gold mine of straight talk and encouragement” (talk about truth in advertising – WTG!).
Amy, you not only walk in our shoes, but you have truly been a leader in challenging the conventional wisdom; leading to better thinking about how PWDs live and the products/services that “help” us.
LYMI,
Mike

I’ve been here since the beginning! (I think…) Nice evolution, dm!
Congrats on the milestone!! I read your site daily and am always grateful for the info I take away.
Awesome, great site!
I just found this wonderful site. My husband is diabetic and I am trying my best to do my best for his meals. Thanks for all you helping information!
I check DM on almost a daily basis. Always great content and information. Keep up the good work! Fellow PWD!
How exciting! Congratulations!
Since finding Mine! I have had such a different look on diabetes and a whole new approach as well. YOU CAN LIVE WITH DIABETES!! LONG AND HEALTHY LIVES!! You just have to believe in yourself, believe in your body and believe that you can overcome this disease!
Diabetes DOES NOT HAVE YOU! YOU HAVE DIABETES!!
You are giving me so much hope! This has all been overwhelming, just thinking of today, yesterday, and the future with this disease, but I know that it has to be one day at a time, one meal at a time. Thanks for keeping me informed!
This is the first website I found after my daughter’s diagnosis last July. It is my Gold Standard when looking at other sites and nothing else compares! Thank you for your hard work and dedication. It means a lot to many people!
New to DM diagnosed with type 2 3 years ago ! Still struggling but remaining positive !
I am type 1 too. its nice to read your opinion on this issue so close to my heart. The day i came to know about my health condition i decided not to let it affect my day to day life. I choose to life life to the fullest. I exercise daily and eat healthy. I also replaced sugar with this natural sweetener called Natvia http://natvia.com/
Congrats on your 20,000 readers! You can add me to the list. I’ve had type one for over 45 years now! I’ll be 47 in a few months.
