You should know when you have Diabetes,because you will have the symptoms. Some of the symptoms are excessive thirst and appetite, having to go to the restroom almost every hour, unusual weight loss or gain, fatigue, nausea, blurred vision, dry mouth, and slow-healing cuts or sores. This is a deadly disease. If you think you may have Diabetes, you need to go to the doctor immediately.

My Hero
Heroes are people that you look up to. They can help people in difficult situations. My heroes are people in the military because they are helpful, courageous, and do a great job.
They are helpful because they save our lives by risking their lives and fighting for our country.
They are courageous because they are brave by being away from their family and friends for years.
They are also awesome at doing their job by being there for us and fighting for us and our country.
Military people are my heroes because they all go out of their way to fight and risk their lives for us. That’s why military people are my heroes.
