As the mother of two young daughters with type 1 diabetes, I've read a lot of websites and books with highly technical medical information about diabetes.

It was refreshing to sit down and read a book full of stories. When's the last time you read a book about diabetes that was actually hard to put down? This is a book like that.

One can't help but be encouraged by stories like those of the two brothers, ages 87 and 91, who have had diabetes since early childhood. Both have avoided major complications even though they lived most of their lives in the "dark ages" (pre-glucometers). The 87-year-old brother often rides his bike 20 miles at a time. The book is full of stories like these.

Interspersed between the stories of these inspiring diabetic people are the 50 secrets. I'll list ten of them here:

1. Live first and be diabetic second.
2. Control your problems before they control you.
3. Consider being a grazer.
4. Always carry a toothbrush.
5. Erase your mistakes with exercise.
6. Love (and hate) your pump.
7. Involve your family and friends.
8. Have kids if you want to.
9. Understand possible diabetes complications.
10. Respect the power of diabetes.

The 50 secrets aren't earth-shaking but there is commentary from these diabetics on all of the secrets and it is motivating and encouraging. The advice is very, very practical.

The authors don't shy away from the grim statistics: "just by having diabetes, you already have twice the risk of dying young as someone who is diabetes-free." Some of the 50 people in the book share stories about scary hypoglycemic episodes while driving. The authors make it clear that facing the reality of possible complications is much better than denial.

There is some information about type 2 diabetes in the book too. Overall, the book is easy to read and I think every teen and twentysomething with diabetes should read it. Parents of diabetics should read it too. It will wake you up a little and also encourage you.

Hopefully and inspiring. I recommend this book for those with type 1 or who love someone with type 1 because it is a very scary thing indeed and we need the reminder that it can be done.

I enjoyed the episodic nature or this book. It is true that much of the information is not original, research, however, it is nice to hear about life from the people who are living it. I liked hearing about Dr. Richard Bernstein and his personal experience..
A good companion to this book is Riva Greenberg's book on 50 diabetic myths.

This is one of the best books about diabetes and people living with diabetes that I have read in a very long time. As a person living with the disease for over 40 years, it was such an inspiration to read about other people that have lived with it even longer than I and to read about others who are dealing with the same issues that I deal with all the time. It is so important for people to know that diabetes does not have to be a death sentence...it is a manageable disease and the proof of that is in reading this book.

I suppose I shouldn't brag too much since I'm quoted quite a bit in this book, but it is truly a book for anyone with diabetes. It is filled with amazing suggestions, (yes, even I learned some new things!) and it should encourage all who take the time to really absorb the contents.

Dr. Sheri and Dr. Steve are both wonderful people and certainly experienced in their field as they, too live with diabetes.

I confess I haven't finished reading it, but I like that I'm getting first-person reports for this difficult subject. Diabetes is a real killer, potentially, & I'm glad that the public's attention is being drawn to it more often, & by real people's reporting.

The few people whose reports I've dipped into help show the way to better survival.

Old advise, old traditional thinking about diabetes. The one thing to glean here is stay at 150 or lower on glucose and you may live a normal life span.

This is a really informative book for diabetics. It is so nice to know so many others are dealing with this disease. To read of their struggles over so many years of their lives and surviving and thriving is encouraging. There are many practical tips, also. Well worth the time and money to read.

If you have diabetes, whether it is Type I or Type II, it makes sense to read about long time survivors and their insight and advise.
