The Diabetic Information Handbook [EPUB ebook] 

I like to help people by making their lives simpler and less complex. At one time, I was one of my mother’s caregivers. My sisters and I had difficulty keeping up with my mother’s medical information and scheduling. We would often write information down on notepads and share what her medical issues were, results of her doctor’s visit, and change in medication.

Sometimes one of us would forget to write down information which resulted in lots of confusion and unnecessary phone calls to the doctors trying to find out the next medical appointment or changes in medication, or at times we did not notate response when a medication did not agree with my mom.

We spent a lot of time going back-and-forth between ourselves and doctors’ offices. One day, while I was with my mom at one of her medical appointments, the idea came to me to write one manual and include the medication doses, doctor’s appointments, type of insulin, etc. Needless to say, this manual made everyone’s life a little easier.
