Dear Friends, Fans, Supporters:

I would just like to say a big thank you for being a part of my story, and my life. Today is a very special day, in that my life's memoir, Not Dead Yet, hits the book shelves. This is one of my proudest days, and I am hoping just a spring board to allow Team Type 1 to continue to help people around the world with their diabetes, while also working to make change on a broad scale level. It would mean the world to me if you would grab a copy for yourself, and share with your friends, family, colleagues who may benefit from this story.

I have included a few links to reviews that were written, and also links to purchase. Again, I can't thank you enough for your support, and for helping me to change the way the world views diabetes. If you grab a copy, it would be fantastic if you could let your Facebook friends and followers know, as I know all will get something out of Not Dead Yet.

Thank you again, and have a GREAT day.

Phil

Rwanda

Phil traveled to Rwanda


Children with type 1 diabetes in Rwanda will live longer, healthier and happier lives thanks in part to a program set up by Team Type 1, a professional cycling squad based in the United States, and a partnership of international government and academic health organizations.

Team Type 1's CEO and founder Phil Southerland returned to Kigali in February and brought together representatives from Rwanda's Ministry of Health, the Rwanda Diabetes Association, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, U.S. Embassy in Rwanda and the University of Pittsburgh to set up a project aimed at educating local doctors and patients about diabetes detection and access to information and donated supplies.

1) Medical Supplies

2) The second part of our work in Rwanda is training doctors and nurses from 500 health care clinics to diagnose and detect diabetes, and then providing information to patients about free access to the donated supplies, Southerland said.
