Kim Vlasnik at Texting My Pancreas had a great idea: The You Can Do This Project. The idea is for you to tell your story, either by vblog or blog, about how you do it. About how you navigate through life with diabetes. Show each and every one of us that “You Can”.
I already made one submission for the kickoff video, but decided I wanted to do a second one. Hope you enjoy!

Chris (@iamspartacus on twitter) invited me to be on his podcast, Just Talking, last night. I briefly met Chris in Washington, DC when I was up there for the JDRF Government Relations Day event in March, but really didn’t get to spend as much time talking with him as I would have liked.
We chatted a bit last nite about things so check it out and thanks Chris!
Thanks for stopping by!
Today’s snarky comment: When will they learn not to let me talk so much?

I’ve written before about depression, burnout and isolation. There were times in the last 40-odd years when I didn’t think I could do it, times when I didn’t want to, and times when I just didn’t care whether I did or not. Yet here I am. You can do this, it’s not easy. It’s heartbreaking at times. But you can do this. You are not alone and that makes doing it so much easier
Check out Kim’s kick off post and video for the You Can Do This project which includes clips from a bunch of familiar members of the online community.
But we can’t wait to hear your story, for you to show us how you do it so we can learn from your experiences. Remind us that we are not alone in this.
Can I? Most days.
Can You? I believe you can.
Can We? Abso-frickin-lutely.
Below is my full video and it is actually my first vblog. Kim dragged me kicking and screaming into the vblog age… so blame her. I do. /wink
