Hi Folks: I am doing some year end desk cleaning and I came across several back issues of the Diabetes Advocate. This is a free publication printed 10 times a year. In some cases their message is the same as ours but they estimate there numbers at 16 million with 120,000 diabetic related deaths per year. I mention there publication because it has a number of advocacy techniques that could be utilized by the PD Community. If you would like to subscribe contact Diabetes Advocate, 1660 Duke Street, Alexandria, VA 22314 Dale Severance
