Mari’s Story (Diabetes)

Mari's Story (Diabetes)Hello my name is Mari Wilson and I was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 10 years old. I was in a diabetic coma for three weeks. The doctors didn’t think I would wake up or even make it through, but my mom had faith in God.

I did and by the grace of God I woke up out of my diabetic coma. I am now 30 years. God has blessed me with a son. I was pregnant again and had him at six months but he passed away 25 days later. But God is good, and I am still here hoping that they will come up with a cure for diabetes. A lot of people don’t know what it is like to be diabetic but it is no joke, it’s not easy.

I am still living. I’m still here by the grace of God. I am here, we are here, for the people that are living with diabetes, cancer, and any type of disease  that there is out there. We are healed in Jesus’s name.

One myth that many new diabetics embrace is the idea that fruits are off-limits. While it’s true that fruits are higher in natural sugar than most vegetables, fruits are also a good source of fiber, which helps to moderate the rise in blood sugar that occurs after a meal. On the other hand, some fruits are naturally low in sugar and may be a better choice, since you can eat more of them. What are the best diabetic-friendly fruits?
