A Story of a Laotian Elderly
“When 1 was about 51 years old. 1 began having problems with my vision; also I was always tired,
thirsty, and had to go to the bathroom often. So one day. I went to my doctor and she did a blood
test. My doctor told me that I had Diabetes Type II. I didn't know what it was, but I was scared.
Today, 24 years from my diagnosis, 1 have done what the doctor had told me. I take my three
medications daily, eat healthy foods, and walk everyday. But, I sometimes feel numbness in my
feet and hands and cannot see very well. 1 just wish that someone could have told me about the
disease earlier.”
Lao woman, 75 years old
