I absolutely LOVE your newsletter!  It is always so positive and hopeful – something the diabetes community is so in need of.  As a past participant in your education sessions to prepare for the CDCES certification exam, I was privileged to see the heart of you and the team at the center there and how big your concern for people with diabetes is.  Best wishes for your continued success!

I always find your email a great wealth of information. You are indeed such an inspiration to everyone you touched. I’m always excited to read your email and learning from it. Because of your enthusiasm to share I too gets inspired of learning some tricks how to draw blood with no pain or less pain or how to teach patient injecting insulin without fear or talking about nutrition. Whatever you share it surely being spread to people we touched.

God bless you and thank you so much for all the emails you send.
