Living With Diabetes on Accessible World tonight, Wed., Jan. 27

[Guest guest]

Newswire

Happy Healthy New Year to you and your family. For Jan. 27th, I would

like to talk about Diabetes and it's relation to heart and vascular

disease. I will discuss why diabetics have more heart and vascular

disease than non-diabetics. The emphasis of the discussion will be on

prevention of heart disease, claudication and other vascular problems.

For those who cannot reach us via computer, please call our phone

center at . The pin number is 090807; just follow the

prompts. Star 6 mutes your phone so that we can cut down all

background noise.
