I keep meeting people who have been diagnosed with diabetes 2.  Maybe it's my age group, but everyone should see their doctor regularly.

    Thanks so much for the blog mention! I truly appreciate it! I didn't know Tom Hanks has it, though. But maintaining his high school weight? I was fat in high school. LOL! I'm surprised, though, that Letterman has high blood sugar.

    More people have it than ever, even teenagers. It doesn't matter if it runs in your family or not, if you're overweight, you're at risk.

    Thank you for this post! You may have saved a life. :)
