Two members of the Chapala Sunrise Rotary Club have resumed the classes of health (physical and mental) information to community members joining our Diabetes Club. Dr. Oscar Ibarra Jr., M.D. and Erika Alamos ( nutritionist) are joined by another volunteer doctor, and psychologist to offer information about diabetes, and strategies for managing the disease. Patients log their daily glucose levels and bring to the clinic for the analysis and support. Tepehua Centro de Communitario has offered teaching space and most of the patients are from that needy neighborhood. We plan to link our services with their Maternal and Child Health program. Attendance at the monthly meetings has grown from November with 8 attendees to this weeks meeting of 29 villagers. Attendees range in age form age 8-85!
