Father's plea after flowers stolen from daughter's grave
WOULD the person who took the flowers off my loving daughter's grave at Huntington please contact me and I will buy you flowers.
You don't have to steal them from a cemetery.

Help for York people with diabetes
FOLLOWING the difficulties with NHS waiting lists and GP appointments, receiving information and support for many people living with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes has been difficult and often stressful, especially for those who have been recently diagnosed with diabetes.
Not only is this worrying for people but they feel that they do not have enough information to manage their diabetes themselves. We would like your readers to know that we can help them to learn more about their diabetes and how to look after themselves with our range of free booklets.
Our booklet ‘Understanding Your Diabetes’ is particularly useful to people who are newly diagnosed because it gives an overview of the different types of diabetes, what they are and how they have to be treated. In addition, one of the most worrying aspects of diabetes for people with diabetes is diet – what they can and can’t eat. We have two useful booklets to help with this: ‘Diabetes – Everyday Eating’ which contains 28 days of menus of everyday, affordable meals to help people manage their diabetes and ‘Diet and Diabetes’. This gives information about various diets, food labelling, weight loss and much more.
All our booklets are free, so we hope you will let your readers know that we can help. They can obtain copies of the above booklets and many more listed in our ‘Publication List’ by contacting IDDT: telephone 01604 622837 or email: enquiries@iddtinternational.org
