Diabetes Not too long ago, George Bush vetoed his first bill after 5, 1/2 years of serving for our country as president. The bill he vetoed did not allow stem cell research to be funded properly by the government, while the many millions of people like me could be cured from the research. His main reasons for vetoing the bill had to do with cloning, and us being a Christian country. Following this announcement, George Bush recieved a standing ovation. None of the new canidates have spoken about stem cell research except Ron Paul, and he disagreed to fund the research. I am 15 years old. I have had Diabetes for 10 years, and this comming March of 2008 will be my 11th. year. Diabetes is more than just a life threatening disease. It's you're life... period. But there is hope. The JDRF (Juvenille Diabetes Research Foundation) holds a Walk-to-Cure-Diabetes every year in Siesta Key Beach, Florida. They raise millions of dollars a year and span to over 200 locations around the Earth. Diabetes can be cured across America with proper funding from organizations, the government, and people like you. This is also a video to all of our current canidates running for the title of the 44th. US president. Diabetes accounts for 7% of the population of your country. What will you do to help the disease? What are your plans for funding stem cell research? Why? Resource: http://tinyurl.com/3d5fjk Note: the following statistics pertain to the United States of America only, unless otherwise stated. Song: Casino Royale Soundtrack: Vesper Q and A about Diabetes: Q: What is Diabetes? A: Your body turns food into energy using insulin. Insulin is made by the pancreas and allows the sugar to be used by your body. Diabetes is a chronic disease where you're pancreas slows down or stops functioning. Without insulin, the sugar stays in your bloodstream. However, with too much insulin, you won't have reserve energy for standing, walking, and sometimes your body can't keep warm with low blood sugar. I have to monitor my blood sugar levels several times a day and take insulin from shots to make sure my blood sugar levels don't go too high or too low. Q: Does Diabetes happen to fat people? A: Not all types of Diabetes happen to obese people. Type 1 (Juvenille Diabetes) is hereditary, so you can't prevent it. It takes over you as a child or teen. Type 2 Diabetes occurs in obese people or old people, whose pancreas's aren't strong enough to meet the demands for insulin. Q: Does it go away? A: No. It is a lifelong disease. It's impossible to avoid completelly without the stem cell procedure. Q: What is life like as a Diabetic? A: Normal. Just a different kind of normal. I take shots and go to the doctors once every couple months, but I'm not stripped of my life. I have a diet and I have to watch what I eat, but I can still eat my favorite foods once in a while. Q: The diet... you have a diet? A: Well, I need to regulate my blood sugar levels. My diet is as followed: don't take too much sugar when you're blood sugar level is high, and drink sugar (it has to be a drink, food takes too long to digest) when your blood sugar level is low. I eat snacks during the day and 3 meals. You can't skip any meals or snacks, or else you'll feel it. Q: You feel your blood sugar levels? A: Yes. When my blood sugar is high, It's harder for me to pay attention or work properly. I feel warm and hyper. Sometimes I'll be agressive. When I'm low, I feel shakey and cold, but usually hungry. I might start sweating and feel very tired. Sometimes I feel dizzy, if it goes down far enough (thank goodness it doesn't!) Q: What's considered "normal" blood-sugar wise? A: The units for blood sugars are measured in mg. of sugar per dL of blood. 80-120 is normal, but it may go between 60-160 depending on how much you eat or exersize. I go between 100-200 for the most part, but I have had numbers as low as 35 and as high as 500. Q: I never knew you were a diabetic! How come you didn't say so before? A: As much as I love to educate people about the disease, I'm not different from anyone else on Youtube: I'm still a human being. I might need more time on tests or medical attention when I'm exersizing vigerously, but it's not like I'm a different person! I live my life differently, that's all. Q: What was that bracelet in the last picture? A: That's my Medic Alert bracelet on my bed. If I pass out from my blood sugars going too low or too high, then the paramedics will be able to see that I'm a diabetic, and they may be able to wake me up with glucagon (think of it as sugar-in-a-bottle) or an insulin shot. Q: What can I do to help? Where can I learn more? A: http://www.jdrf.org Tags: diabetes stem cell research united states |
