Hi, I'm John.

I’ll never forget that moment sitting in the doctor’s office with my eight-year-old son. The doctor had just said, “He has diabetes” and the whole world seemed to freeze for a moment.

We didn’t know much about diabetes then. But we’ve learned a lot in the years since then. Our son is a healthy teenager now. Diabetes is a daily part of our lives, but it’s not the only part of our lives.

Diabetic Connect has provided a great opportunity for me and my family to connect with others who share our concerns and daily challenges. We love to share what we’ve learned over the years and to learn from others too.

I hope you take a look around the site. We have a great community here that truly feels like family. Welcome!

Caregiver Advocate, Diabetic Connect
