Diabetes  

Enjoying Your Life
The right care pays off. Your diabetes will not stop you from enjoying most activities. You can gain the confidence to manage diabetes if you have support from your health care team of physicians, nurses, pharmacists, diabetes educators and dieticians as well as your family, friends and co-workers.

Ongoing diabetes education prepares you for long-term self-care. Many educational resources are available, such as classes taught by diabetes educators, videos, booklets, Internet publications and of course, physicians. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) speaks the language of the diabetic and is a good resource for support and educational materials.

Remember:
It is possible to live a full life with diabetes when you know how to care for yourself.
