<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=utf-8"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Good evening, everyone, let me just state a simple fact here it is not normal for one to need to hire assistants to manage one’s own diabetes, I am deaf blind and I do manage my own diabetes. I think this division is good for dealing with the deaf blindness, I would urge you to talk to the diabetes action network to get more information about how a blind person regardless of one’s hearing can manage one’s own diabetes. However I must say that I am type II, I don’t know how managing it is as a type I diabetic but I do know plenty of people who have type I who are blind and doing just fine. If anyone wishes me to pass a message on to the president of the diabetes action network I can do that, all of the best to everyone on the list, and I hope that my brief comments are helpful.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Sincerely Maurice mines.</div><div class="">message number, 505-369-3283.</div><div class="">Amateur radio call sign, kd0iko.</div><div class="">board member, national Federation of the blind of New Mexico Albuquerque chapter.<br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Mar 17, 2016, at 7:56 PM, Jaye Marie Brown via NFB-DB <<a href="mailto:nfb-db@nfbnet.org" class="">nfb-db@nfbnet.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><font size="2" face="arial" class=""><font size="2" class="">Is there any way, other than hiring a person, to deal with Diabetes?
