I&#8217;ve done a lot of research, have even proofed and read for a couple of textbook publishers, but didn&#8217;t get started on writing until I started this weblog.  I have 12 chapters done &#8212; though I admit they are very short chapters, since my students hate to read.<\/p>\n<p>Also, I remember how scared, depressed, frustrated I was when I was first diagnosed.  One of the things I&#8217;m very good at, is web based research, so that&#8217;s how I started to deal with this diabetes.  Why not pull what I&#8217;ve learned into one spot, so that other people can benefit.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, just keeping it going has been therapetic for me.  When I get frustrated and \/ or bogged down, I even remember that I need to stop that, because it will get others down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow!
