Happy Healthy New Year to you and your family. For Jan. 27th, I would like
to talk about Diabetes and it's relation to heart and vascular disease. I
will discuss why diabetics have more heart and vascular disease than
non-diabetics. The emphasis of the discussion will be on prevention of heart
disease, claudication and other vascular problems.

For those who cannot reach us via computer, please call our phone center at
218-844-3388.  The pin number is 090807; just follow the prompts.  Star 6
mutes your phone so that we can cut down all background noise.
