Diabetes Late Nite Inspired by Doris Day

Mr. Divabetic explores how "UNCONDITIONAL LOVE" effects your diabetes self-care with inspiration from Doris Day.

If you want lessons in unconditional love, don't look up to a role model -- simply look down. Two wonderful role models for unconditional love generally stand at knee level: your kids and your pets. 

Doris Day is a life-long animal lover and advocate who has used her celebrity status to make a difference for the animals.

Pets can help their owners overcome depression through their companionship and unconditional love. They seem to possess the natural ability to help you relax and enjoy life more. Pets can also help when you experience times of loneliness. 

Doris Day has experienced many up’s and down’s throughout both her professional and personal life (she turned 90 this year) but her upbeat attitude has always come shining through, She says, “No matter what happens, if I get pushed down, I’m going to come right back up.”

Diabetes Late Nite guests include: Patricia Addie-Gentle RN, CDE, Dr. Beverly S. Adler PhD, CDE, Neva White DNP, CRNP, CDE, Poet Lorraine Brooks, Mama Rose Marie, Best-Selling Author and Romance Psychology Expert Rachel Van Dyken and Marguerite van Reenen from South Africa.
