Get A Grip On Diabetes II, A Personal Food Diary For The Newly Diagnosed

This book was born out of frustration but written with love. This is not just a regular book to read, it is interactive, there is space for your thoughts, wishes, likes, and dislikes.As a mother of a newly diagnosed diabetic daughter I have been through all the stages, the initial shock, the disbelieve, the anger AND fury, the secret promise to whomever that if this could be just a temporary condition, I will do this and that I PROMISE!...then the acceptance, but I went further. I started to research frantically. I recognised and realised that I better face the beast that seen fit to attack my daughter, my baby! She is 37 years old, but she is MY BABY!...mothers will understand what I am saying here. The little "information package" that we got at the doctor's office was useless. I wanted something that the whole family could use if needed.Inside this book you, and if you like even your family, can make notes on the subjects right below it. Use this book not just as a guide about your food, but also as writing therapy and maybe even as a messenger like: "I like cashew, but I don't like peanuts" as a message for your husband, or just to VENT. For real! That can be therapeutic as well.Use this book to conquer the beast however you like! Tell the beast "THIS FIGHT IS NOT OVER! I'M COMING FOR YOU!"Elisabeth Erdei
