the Plan from this type 2 diabetic


This is my big plan: I’ll write a blog on a topic relating to type 2 diabetes every once in awhile & I’ll see if there’s any interest out there from readers. I want to stir things up on areas I don’t see anyone else writing about in the type 2 diabetes world I live in. I’ve spent many hours searching for an active, current blog or bulletin board for type 2 diabetics, and I didn’t find one. There’s lots of sites that are Trojan horses for the megaceuticals or store fronts for research projects, only. There are a couple old, abandoned, inactive sites around – which bothers me since maybe it shows there’s no demand out there for this kind of thing.

It’s your views - agreeing and disagreeing with mine, educating me to other perspectives, maybe exposing others to what T2Ds really think – that will make or break this blog for me – I’m more interested in the exchange than the profundity of my trenchant thoughts.
I don’t have a big vision or agenda with this; I just want to exercise a free and independent voice. I want other type 2 diabetics to open up, & let their feelings be known and shared, just to feel good about sharing in that process, even if they think I’m full of b.s. Who knows where this will go, let’s have some fun with it.
