Glucometers for Diabetics

Misha is a diabetic.  He is also one of our favorite NGOs.  Our project with him this time involved buying 140 glucometers to hand out to diabetics to be able to test their blood sugar level and thus maintain a healthier life. On Aug. 9th we handed out some of them. In this picture he is showing the man the glucometer and getting his information.  Misha does a very good job.
Well, he doesn't take good pictures - he kept cutting off the tops of our heads!  This was my favorite recipient.  The girl is 21 and has been a diabetic since she was 4.  She always brings her Grandma with her when she goes places.  Very sweet!

  2. Your nametag looks smaller...is it a different one from your regular "missionary" one?
    Great project!
