I spent my lunch today reorganizing my bookshelves and I dug up a forgotten treasure. This is dated 1968. A friend rescued it from the "pulp" pile at her work. I'm tempted to post highlights in a thread later on if people are interested. #diabetes #diabetic #t1d @diabetes

All right, doing my flip-through of this diabetes advice book from 1968 because it's snowy and I'm bored. Strap yourselves into the time machine.

Tagging @diabetes #diabetes #diabetic here but the rest will be in an unlisted thread to avoid clutter.

Toot

Chapter 2 follows Peggy as she helps a newly diagnosed patient through being diagnosed. Weirdest thing so far is there's no mention of "type 1" or "type 2" anywhere, it's still "juvenile" vs. "adult." Peggy is type 1 but this fictional patient is presumably type 2 (she goes on oral meds). Bit of culture shock there.
