Well, happy last day of Diabetes awareness month. 💙🔵🩸😎

But everyday is a day to be aware of diabetes and learn about it and about those, like me , live with it - no matter what type you have.

Continue to donate to diabetic causes like @embrac3movement and other diabetic nonprofits and associations in your state and country. 🙏🏼💙🔵🩸

Happy National Diabetes Awareness Month 2023! 💙🔵🩸😎🎉🥳

This month has a few holiday months like fun with fondue month 😅🥲, but this month is also National Diabetes Awareness Month 2023! 💙🔵🩸😎🥳🎉👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This month is to raise awareness and support for those living with diabetes.

I have compiled a few tips, activities, ideas - mines and others, facts,reminders and etc. from different sites for the month:

🔹 November 14th - World Diabetes Day! 🥳🎉🩸🔵💙

🔹 My idea for any time of the year which I

would like to call "diabetes kindness",

leave diabetic candy and diabetic snacks

and diabetic beverages at any diabetic

clinic and diabetic centers. 💙☺️🍬

🔹 Tip: Get plenty of sleep/rest 😴, drink a

good amount of water 🥤💧, and eat

veggies & fruits. 🥦 🍏🫐

🔹 My tip: Stock up on sugarfree candy,

sugarfree snacks and sugarfree juices

and drinks. Especially on the go kind. 🍫🍪

But remember to limit the snacking on

Certain sugarfree items.

🔹Activity: Wear blue the whole month, a few

days or on November 14th, if you can, it's

optional. 👗👖🧢🧥

🔹Team assemble! 😉😅

Activity: this is a activity I have done and

seen on Instagram:

Assemble a diabetic kit!

you'll need a clear transparent container and

decorate it with diabetic stickers and/or use

a cute big fabric zipper pouch or whatever

to hold your medicine, lancets , glucose

tablets , etc.

🔹 Tip: Have a flat folder to hold all of your

medical information and records to keep

up with and take to the hospital.

🔹 Activity: Assemble a "sick day" 🤒 kit:

In the kit , put a blood glucose monitoring

supplies, test strips, glucose tablets and/or

Glucose gel, a thermometer, hand sanitizer,

and soft tissues.

🔹Idea: I'm thinking of maybe making this:

Create your own diabetic cookbook.

🔹 FACT: There were fact documents on

Diabetes dating around 1500 BC.

Fact from nationaltoday.com. 📜

🔹 FACT : Frederick Banting & John MacLeod

won Nobel peace prize in discovering

treatment. 🏅

🔹 I don't know if this is just for the UK or for the whole world:

Blue balloon challenge - balance a blue balloon while you do a daily activity or exercise. 🎈

🔹 Activity: If you have blue nailpoish, paint them blue for the month, even decorate them with diabetic themes . 💅🏼🩸🔵💙

find safe ones like @acquarellapolish and n @diabetesuk shop on Instagram and their websites.
