Hi Tracy,


Welcome to the board. My name is Mary Frances and I am one of the community leaders for this board. I am also a type 2 diabetic and a registered nurse. On this board we celebrate successes, lament failures (and we all have them) and give gentle shoves when necessary. So please pull up a chair and join our conversation. From what you have posted it looks like you are doing a good job of managing your disease.


A welcoming hug,
