At the 2001 convention of the National Federation of the Blind, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, our Diabetes Action Network will have its seminar and business meeting. It will be held on Tuesday, July 3, from 1:30 to 4 pm. There will be a presentation about a new talking device that will provide information on any prescription medication (insulin included), and an insulin pump company representative will be present.
Our keynote speaker will be a diabetes educator (CDE) who will answer diabetes questions and discuss adaptive equipment for blind diabetics.
Once again, we will have our "Make the President Pay" diabetes quiz game -- and President Ed Bryant says he will give a nice donation to the Division for each right answer! Our seminar is free and open to the public. Its location will be posted in the agenda (provided when you register).
