Life with Diabetes

The odds are that you or someone you know has diabetes already or is at risk for developing this disease. Nearly 21 million Americans — or roughly 1 in every 14 people — have diabetes, and many more are at risk. Of course, if you or someone you love has diabetes, the disorder is about much more than a statistic. It means a new way of life. Eating a meal, planning a vacation, or going for a run requires forethought and planning.
