NH 31: How to practice self-care through the festivities when living with diabetes, with Moses Mogesi
People living with diabetes can be especially isolated when festivities set in. Now we are in November and technically the festivities are just about to start (if they haven't already) for individuals, groups, and institutions. So what does self-care look like for someone living with diabetes especially since sel-care among people living with diabetes makes 90% of diabetes care? Moses explains why for people living with diabetes and anyone else for that matter, health should be an all-year-long concern, rather than something we pick up at certain times of the year, and drop at others. Listen, learn, remember to leave feedback and share with a loved one.
