Dear Nicole,
Welcome to Connections, the Behavioral Diabetes
Institute's electronic newsletter. The
Behavioral Diabetes Institute (BDI) is
the world's
first organization dedicated to tackling the
unmet
psychological needs of people with diabetes.
Since
our goal is to assist as many individuals
with diabetes
as possible, we hope you will forward this
newsletter
to others who may benefit from our programs and
activities.

DiaBuddies program CAN change how you live
with diabetes.

|
| BDI is for Families, Too |
 |
|
Even those without diabetes can experience

| Would you and your family like to attend a "feel good" event that convinces you that anything is possible when you have diabetes? |
