Diabetes

Today, diabetes the most common disease that humans are diagnosed with. Victims of diabetes that are in my family are both my parents. My parents were just diagnosed with diabetes a couple years ago. Although it's minor, it still affects the health and strength of my parents. Both my parents have to take medications everyday, and it's painful to watch them have to do that. Because of the unstable condition of their blood sugar, they have to watch what they're eating constantly. Just a bite of a sugar product, my mom's blood sugar shoots up, and she begins to feel weak. If there's not enough sugar in her blood, then she begins to sweat and also feels weak. Not only does my father suffer from diabetes, but also high cholesterol. It scares me everyday, because you never know when he could have a heart attack from the high cholesterol. These diseases that occur everyday is slowly killing this world, and I start to get extremely afraid that one day, something will happen like that to my family. Therefore, it's no doubt that everyone needs to keep their body healthy, and heart. Always exercise and eat healthy, because one day, you can be a victim of these diseases.
