National Diabetes Day

Tuesday was National Diabetes Day. A march took place in Banjul to the main hospital, The Royal Victoria Teaching Hospital, where The Secretary of State for Health and other leaders of the community were present. Overall, it was a success and directed more awareness to the public about the disease.

After a hot hour of listening in the sun, a nice cold, refreshing soda pop was handed out to the audience.

No one said it was going to be easy.

Did you check sugar levels before handing out the soda? Nice one.
