Thank You Village on a Diet and CBC

Earlier today I blogged about a new T.V. series called Village on a Diet on CBC television.
There was a comment that was made on the 1st episode suggesting that type 1 diabetes was caused by an unhealthy lifestyle, which we all know is untrue.

A fellow Canadian T1 mama posted a comment on her facebook page and that was it, I entered letter writing mode.  After one live chat comment, one discussion board comment (a long letter) on Village on a Diet facebook page, a blog post and one letter written to CBC plus the countless other letters, phone calls and comments from fellow T1's and families, CBC has stepped up!

with this: The Facts on Diabetes

HERE is a link to my earlier "bitching blog post" about the show and my concerns.   

and THIS is my THANK YOU BLOG POST

and THANK YOU Village on a Diet CBC for giving this one T1 mama belief that people who do not live this  type 1 life WILL understand and WILL help educate. You have given me a renewed sense of energy and hope to keep on advocating for my daughter and for all type 1's.
