Diabetes Awareness Month
Diabetes on the rise
NANAIMO – OBESITY RATES ARE SKYROCKETING ACROSS CANADA — AND SO ARE THE HEALTH PROBLEMS THAT GO ALONG WITH THEM.
NINE MILLION CANADIANS ARE LIVING WITH DIABETES — AND MORE ARE BEING DIAGNOSED EVERY DAY.
HERE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA — RATES SEEM TO BE PARTICULARLY HIGH.
ON THE RUN, ALWAYS GETTING FROM ONE PLACE TO THE NEXT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. NOT GOOD FOR OUR HEALTH, AS IT FORCES US TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE RESTAURANTS ON OUR ROUTE. FOODS THAT CAN BECOME ADDICTIVE.
THE CANADIAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION’S RESEARCH SHOWS THAT BRITISH COLUMBIA IS CURRENTLY SPENDING ROUGHLY $1.3 BILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR ON DIABETES. THAT FIGURE COULD RISE TO $1.9 BILLION BY 2020.
YOU COULD BE AT RISK AT BECOMING DIABETIC IF YOU ARE OVER WEIGHT, OVER THE AGE OF 40 AND DON’T LIVE AN ACTIVE LIFE.
SOMETIMES IN LIFE WE NEED TO TAKE A STEP BACK. SLOW DOWN OUR DAY TO DAY ACTIVITIES AS DIABETES CAN BE BROUGHT ON BY STRESS.
YOU CAN AVOID BEING DIAGNOSED WITH DIABETES BY LISTENING TO EDNA AND BEGIN LIVING AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE. IF DIABETIC, IT’S NOT TO LATE, AS YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO GO FOR A LIGHT JOG OR A BRISK WALK.

HC: Tun tun tun tun tun tun tun tun
Seamos un tilín mejores
Y un poco menos egoístas
Tun tun tun tun tun tun tun tun
Huele a esperanza
FR: In this common endeavor
Huele a esperanza
GB: All of us work together
HC: Tun tun tun tun tun tun tun tun
BO: We must embrace a new era of engagement
Because the time has come
UN Choir: To smell the hope!

It has to be shared

UN Choir: To smell a better world!!
FR: A better world to live in for future generations everywhere.
AG: Don’t get sick
That’s right, don’t get sick
If you have insurance, don’t get sick
If you don’t have insurance, don’t get sick
If you’re sick, don’t get sick
Just don’t get sick
That’s the Republicans’ health care plan
CC: He has a chart
AG: An angry chart
CC: A chart that helps us learn!
AG: ooh ooh ah ah
If you get sick in America, die quickly
That’s right–the Republicans want you to die quickly if you get sick
AG: I agree!
CC: He agrees!
AG: Angrily!
CC: Cuz he’s angry!
KO: Afford to live?
Are we at that point?
Are we so heartless?
How can we not be united against death?
Us: My BFF Gilgamesh knows eternal life’s an impossible quest
The resources exist for your father and mine to get the same treatment
Us: Yeah, we’re in agreement
But first we gotta lay down some
All: High speed rail
Us: Bail out some
All: Banks
Us: Save your daddy with the leftover change
KO: How can we be so heartless?
Us: We’re nihilists!
KO: How can we be so heeeeaaartless?
Us: We’re tryna die quick!
KO: What more obvious role could government have
Than the defense of the life of each citizen?
KC: How is the Nobel Peace Prize decided?
BS: Well, uh, that is what people were asking all day today
Bølverk: We mix a secret potion,
And roll the ancient dice,
Then hire a focus group
And have a human sacrifice.
KC: A lot of people are asking today why do you think the committee elected President Obama?
Bølverk: I believe a prize for peace should go to the biggest wuss.
BS: They were giving Obama a prize for not being George Bush.
Choir: They can smell the hope!!
KC: Take a deep breath!
Choir: And hope a smelly world!
KC: A deep breath!
FR: A better world to live in for future generations everywhere
