Diabetes doesn't have to beat youDiagnosed with diabetes in 1979, Brimley began working to raise awareness of the disease. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) honored Brimley in 2008 with an award to recognize his lifetime of service. Brimley has been active visiting Veterans Administration hospitals and communities to advise patients on how to manage their diseases. The ADA presented the award to the actor at the Port St. Lucie headquarters of Liberty Medical on December 19, 2008Brimley is among the nearly 24 million Americans with this condition. In this disease, the body gradually loses its ability to regulate blood sugar (glucose) that is burned for energy. Left untreated, diabetes can cause drastic effects over time. Blindness, disability and death can result as excess blood sugar damages delicate blood vessels."Diabetes is no fun, but the good news is that you can manage it successfully, if you work at it. That's what I've been doing all these years, and it hasn't really slowed me down much at all...even if I did stop roping steers in rodeos when I turned age 65!"DISCLAIMER: This is NOT an official but a fan made app. All the logos, trademarks and sources are the properties of their respective owners.
