Join us on Thursday, November 14th from 5:00 – 6:30 p.m. in the HMH Conference Center to learn more about this prevalent disease. This educational forum will benefit anyone with diabetes as well as those interested in learning more about diabetes.

There will be a short presentation this year where Jean Cipperley, Diabetes Educator, will be honoring those who have taken insulin for more than 25 years and acknowledging those who have had diabetes for more than 25 years. In addition, Jean will speak on the history of diabetes treatment.

Join us for this educational evening that will include information on insulin and other diabetes medications, free educational materials and glucose meter information, healthy food samples donated by Ida Grove Food Pride, as well as displays by Lewis Family Drug, Ida Drug and Maier Family Pharmacy.
