DIABETES CAN BE SWEET ONCE YOU BURY IT

This excellent book is a must read for any diabetic, especially newly diagnosed type 1 diabetics and their families.  The title gives it all away; this is a book about living in the long term with one of the most demanding chronic diseases there are.  Yes, diabetes can be sweet once you bury it, but Ms. Rossetti shows how to live with it, beat it, and how to laugh with it.

Julie Wanner Rossetti has made diabetes her life.  After diagnosing herself at the age of 13, she has fought a successful fight to live normally and avoid being labeled as a diabetic.  Her philosophy of managing diabetes with a positive attitude has given her the tools not only to lead an active and fulfilling life herself, but also to advise others.  She has founded her own company, Diabetes Done Right, and offers informed opinion and problem solving solutions as probably the best informed diabetes consultant practicing today.

The book begins as the teenage Rossetti goes through the early stages of diabetes, suffering extreme thirst and weight loss, feeling tired and weak and suffering vision problems, finally diagnosing herself in a biology lesson!  Gradually, we realize the reason for the books name, since this is the key to Ms. Rossettis unique way of seeing herself.  "Diabetes Can Be Sweet Once You Bury It" is full of Ms. Rossettis fresh and original humor, the special lighthearted way of seeing herself that makes this such a special book.

It's all here-adventure, romance, mystery and romance, all from Ms. Rossettis unforgetably funny perspective and presented in her fluent and witty style.  Ms. Rossetti has lived 25 years with diabetes type 1, and has quite a lot of specialized knowledge that is fascinating to read, but it would be a mistake to think that this is a textbook on diabetes.  On the contrary, Ms. Rossetti has written one of the most interesting general biographies to appear in a long time, and it is true to say that "Diabetes Can Be Sweet Once You Bury It" is more a book about living than a book about living with diabetes.

For this reason I would recommend it to all healthy people who really want to improve their outlook on life, anyone who wants a good read, and especially for anyone who has a diabetic child.  "Diabetes Can Be Sweet Once You Bury It" by Julie Wanner Rossetti is available at Amazon.
