Struggling with diabetes in a western society can be difficult enough! Imagine what it is like for developing countries such as Africa.  Due to lack of awareness and recources, diabetes in developing countries is a creeping danger not anticipated until it reaches a critical level. The main intention of this book was to appeal to charity organisations to help diabetics of the devloping countries like Ethiopia by providing medication and testing tools to control the disease. Not only does it warn diabetics in developing countries to be aware of the slow killer disease, but also shows how life does go on with diabetes in a developing country and with the proper treatment, you can perform your normal every-day routine. It reminds us, that diabetes is a global crisis, and one day we all hope for a diabetes free world.
