Diabetesaliciousness © 2007 – 2023: #SpareARose 2020 & A DOC Valentine
Seven years later – I’m proud that our amazing DOC continues to help spare roses and save thousands of children living with diabetes – providing them with our life-saving elixir of life, insulin.
Insulin they wouldn’t have access to otherwise.

Dearest DOC-
You tell me “I will” and “I can,” whenever I have doubts –
You answer my diabetes questions – even the ones about Brussels sprouts.
You see the best in me – even when I can’t.
You listen with understanding whenever I go off on one of my “G*ddamn Diabetes Police/diabetes and the media’s stupidity, rants.
And hopefully – I’ve been there for you in some small way –
Even if it’s just making you smile on a particularly craptastical day.
Together we move mountains – Alone we trudge up hills.
Together we help others living with diabetes, both online and off…
And unfortunately, the only thing I can think of that rhymes with “off” in terms of the next line…is Hasselhoff.
I love you all so very much and thanks for your time.
where insulin isn’t readily available and many hearts break.
Damn straight 5 bucks goes a hell of a long way, to save a child with diabetes this Saint Valentine’s Day~
