CDC-Diabetes Care During Natural Disasters, Emergencies, and Hazards

    Where I live, we don't think much about being prepared for natural disasters, emergencies or hazards.  We don't see them much here.  It doesn't mean they can't happen, though and we should know what to do to be prepared.  Tonight's tornado scare here in my little town is proof of this.  There was one headed straight for us here in Fort Loudon.  I, even though I read this article and posted it for you all last month was not prepared. 
    Diabetics should know how to prepare.  The CDC has issued a Diabetes Public Resource giving very important information about how we as diabetics can be prepared, how to take care of ourselves after a disaster, and where to go for help.  This Resource provides links to sites giving instructions and to organizations that can provide assistance.  Click below to prepare yourself and your family for any kind of disaster or emergency:
