Mr. Divabetic’s Worry-Free Diabetes Wedding Advice

June 19, 2011

Diva TalkRadio: Diabetes Weddings

Here’s some diva-licious to help you to make sure my diabetes doesn’t get in the way of the biggest day of your life.

Worry-Free Diabetes Wedding Tip #2: Appoint a diabetes helpmate for the day of your wedding. This person could be a family member (sister, aunt, cousin) or good friend.  Try to avoid picking someone who will be as equally involved in the wedding as you like your maid of honor or mother. Their task is to remind you to check your blood sugars at various times throughout the day (before you take photos). If you let someone else focus on YOU then you’ll be able to relax and enjoy on your big day.

What happens to Julia Roberts on her wedding day in the film, “Steel Magnolias”  is sooooo ‘80‘s! Today, your wedding can be ‘diabetes’ drama free.

Joy Pape’s Type 1 Update

January 21, 2011
 

Are you or someone you know and love newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes? If so, there is a study that may help you and many other people who have type 1 diabetes.

The beta cells of your pancreas are the cells that produce insulin. In type 1 diabetes, some T cells (called T effector cells) mistakenly attack and destroy these beta cells. This is called an autoimmune attack. The good news is, early on, you still have beta cells that produce insulin. Research efforts like the DEFEND-2 Study are investigating the possibility of “reprogramming” the immune system to stop the attack on the beta cells, and protect the beta cells from further attack. This means you may preserve some beta cells that produce insulin. Preserving some of your beta cells may help you in ways such as:

*The need for less insulin to reach your A1C
*Less blood sugar swings (from high to low and low to high)
*Less complications
*Better quality of life

Learn more about DEFEND-2 at http://defendagainstdiabetes.com/.  Or, contact Joy Pape, RN BSN CDE WOCN CFCN joypape@mac.com
