Writer’s Envy
I don’t think I’ve ever said this but I have writers envy.

My jaw dropped when Renza Scibilia from Diabetogenic casually mentioned that she knows exactly how long … Read More Writer’s Envy

Fit with Diabetes: An e-book review

Disclosure: I’ve just returned from the two-day #dx2Melbourne blogging event hosted by Abbot, the makers of the Freestyle libre, a flash glucose monitoring technology which has the tag line, “Why prick when you can scan?” I was sponsored by Abbott to participate in the program. They paid for my flight to Melbourne, put me up in a hotel, gave me two free sensors, a … Read More Why prick when your can scan?

It’s been a big week! I’ve taught Yoga in Italy and Switzerland and managed to keep up my commitment to blog for Diabetes Blog Week for 7 days. A first for me as I lead such an active life that it’s hard to commit to doing something, other then my work, consistently and to a topic. So first, a big THANK YOU to Karen Graffeo for … Read More Continuing Connections
