I'm not diabetic, but my husband, father, late grandfather, and mother-in-law are all Type II diabetics.

My grandfather was diagnosed before I was born, but I do remember when my father and husband were diagnosed. Both were really struggling with excessive thirst and urge to urinate. And when I say excessive, I mean *excessive.* In the months before they were diagnosed, I vividly remember that they had to use the restroom every 15-20 minutes during the day and would get up several times a night.

Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation's focus is on diabetes research and education. If you go to the website, you should find some interesting links there.
