Dawn, I was in the trial for Pelikan Sun lancing device by signing up to participate with them at the Children With Diabetes conference, where they were exhibiting. Often you may find opportunities at a big health fair. You can also look online for current trials looking for participants. riva
Hi Rita-I have had diabetes for 30 years. I was diagnosed when I was 6. I am wondering, how do you go about participating in the trials for all of these great new products. I have had my ups and downs over the years and am very fortunate to not suffer from any complications even though I have not always been in the best control. I find when I get burnt out trying something new helps and thought this would be a great thing to do.
Riva, I'm really enjoying your articles, especially the ones about low carbs. I'm a Type II and keep reading contradictory messages. Maybe you or your readers could tell me if they actually know anybody who does well (by which I mean "better") with the offical balanced meal, as opposed to low carb eating.
It would be so much easier to follow if I were convinced low is the way to go.

Brad, do you know about Children with Diabetes? It's an online community for parents of children with type 1 diabetes. riva
Hello, I am in the process of trying to find a person or group to chat-discuss the ongoing daily life struggle of having a young child with diabetes
Hi Riva,
I just wanted to let you know about the medical bracelets my company makes. They are lightweight, sylish, great for kids and adults and only $12. They are available at www.idonme.com I don't mean this to be a sales pitch, I just love them so much that I like to spread the word. If you would like a free sample, just let me know.
Best Wishes,
Marie Fishman
Aloha Riva,
Thank you for your article. I have dealt with a chronic disease for 20 years now and have also spent much time considering why "bad things happen to good people." My sister is a Diabetes Educator and I've learned much from her clients who attend our Health Getaways as well as from the Hawaiian Healers I have studied with that "The only thing we can control is how we react emotionally when things happen, e.g., look at them as a learning experience." And "There's always another way to achieve the desired result. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking." What about the new inhalable insulin, for example. Above all, I have studied the Huna philosophy that how we deal with stress is at the root of dis-ease and I have learned many mind-body healing techniques to relieve tension on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels. They help me to keep going even when faced with treatment failures, pesticide poisoning, family and financial problems, and the constant demands of maintaining calm when faced with chronic illness. My Diabetes Educator sister, Ann Doherty, RN, CDE, has seen research proving the stress relationship to blood sugar imbalance and heart disease for instance, so I would be happy to share some of "The Art of Stress Management" techniques that will be taught at the Hawaii Health Getaway with anyone who emails me at diane@HawaiiHealthGetaway.com.
DEAR riva u give me hope for my son who is 8yrs old and was diaginosed with type 1 diabetes he has been a solider about it since he has found out and made me strong in the process but the thought of him having it breaks my heart so bad and his sugar has been droping he says his fingers r sore and i just was wondering about the device and when it comes aviable if you could let me know thank you god bless you 4 ur page
Dear Riva--
I just found your web site--very nice, kudos toward your efforts! I have a similar story and attitude to match. And, in fact, my wife's maiden name should have been Greenberg, but her father dropped the 'berg' years before and so she was only Green...! I was dx'ed in 1966 when I was 13 years old. I've spent most of my 41 years with diabetes as a happy, healthy, postitive, well adjusted and fully functioning human. I hang my successes on several causes, which I'd be more than happy to share with you. Too bad you never got to interview me--although I do not claim perfection in any area of my life, my journey has been a fascinating one, filled mostly with learning and joy, fulfillment and wholeness--and I see my diabetes as a large part of it all.
I also see you will be, coindicentally enough (or are there really coincidences...?), in my neck of the woods very shortly--I live just outside of Buffalo! I may try and make it to your talk, but have scheduling complications. In any case, it would be interesting to speak with you and compare notes, or even get together.
Michael
