My son's favorite movie is Dolphin tale. The day I received the book, it was a pleasant surprise and i couldn't wait to get home and share be beautiful short story on the Dolphin's Triumph. The little man loved the lovely pictures and followed the flow of the story word by word...at the end, father and Son could only smile and hi5 knowing through determination and mother's tender care and re-assurance the little dolphin broke through the water surface like a torpedo and was flying high!...

-Blood sugar screening
-Eye and foot screening
-Blood pressure check
-Educating people on nutrition and about diabetes in its broader sense
