I am currently starting a program in San Antonio Texas aimed at Type 1 Diabetics. I am currently looking for type 1 diabetics over the age of 16. If you are interested in getting involved please contact me at aliciajw@ymail.com for more information
I am organizing a program where current diabetics go to local
hospitals and make visits with newly diagnosed patients. I am looking
for current diabetics ages 16 and older to take part in the program. By
visiting the newly diabetics our goal is to offer them company while
hospitalized. We will not be going in there to teach them about
diabetes or talk about it because they will have plenty of people
already doing so. We will play games with them, keep them company and
talk about diabetes if they feel like doing so. We will be showing them
that it will be ok. Because I have limited resources I am only looking
for people in the San Antonio Texas area. However, you can start your
own program in WI! To get started let your current doctor know that if
there are ever any newly diagnosed patients you are more then willing
to go visit them! It's a great way to start!Again if you have any questions please feel
free to email me at aliciajw@ymail.com.
