| Sione tells his story to the new group |
I found out I had diabetes shortly after moving to the Marshall Islands in the 1980's. My blood sugar was 321 and blood pressure was up to 140/90. I soon noticed a cut on my foot that started small and got larger and then I realized that I couldn't feel anything on my foot! Then one day I came for a checkup and met Denis Yates of the Diabetes Wellness Center and was put into a program on February 2010. When I started the program I was very overweight and by April I had lost over 20 pounds. My blood sugar came down to 146. To this day I am still walking everyday and workout in the gym whenever I get a chance. I started feeding my grandkids the healthy foods now and they love it just like Grandpa does! Thank you Denis, Tanner, and all the others at the Wellness Center for making a new person and healthy person out of me.
