If you haven’t seen already, today is World Diabetes Day. What does this day mean to me? Honestly, not much anymore. I don’t want to be Debbie Downer, but this day used to excite me, but it does not anymore.
The costs of my diabetes stays the same today. My blood sugar levels don’t know it World Diabetes Day and decide to behave properly today. The time I spend on the phone fighting insurance companies doesn’t decrease because it’s World Diabetes Day.
What do I like, well, LOVE about this day? Is that there is awareness brought to the disease. A lot is through sales and promotions of companies in the space, but hey, we all gotta earn a buck somehow right?.
Marketers will forever ruin everything. And yes, I am part of that. I am running a FLASH sale for my wife’s Etsy store today.
Diabetes doesn’t pay for itself.
Ahh darn diabetes and cost. I hope the Etsy sale went wonderfully.
