For those of us who don't live in
hurricane paths or in earthquake zones, the idea of needing any sort of
"emergency kit" for diabetes supplies seems a waste of time. Recent
world events have shown us otherwise. In Canada we have seen the the
speed with which forest fires have spread through the Okanogan and the
devastation they leave behind. On the east coast, we have witnessed the
destruction that flooding can cause and have seen many friends evacuated
from their homes at a moments notice. With that in mind, Diabetes
Advocacy felt that we should all seriously consider creating our own
Emergency Packs no matter where you live--no matter how much you think
this will never happen in your area it just might! Examples of items for your Diabetes Emergency Kit
