Diabetic Denial: The Long Journey Home

By Alexander Danny Joyeux

I hope this book will inspire you to get out and do something in this world as I decided, being part of the Human Family. Should this book inspire one person to change their course of action, as it relates to their health, then my duty has been fulfilled.

"One must steer through life with a steady hand and trust all things, in relationship with nature."

Acknowledgments

I would like thank all who helped in my recovery and journey to a healthy beginning.

The Doctors, Nurses and Staff of Kaiser Permanent Hospital, Vallejo CA, their dedication to my health and recovery was vital to returning home and healing from such a traumatic experience. My neighbors whose concerns, gratitude and understanding gave me a sense of relief as guest crowded the area.

My family: Brothers and Sisters who supported me throughout my ordeal and continue to show their love for me. My Cousins who accompanied me to all my medical appointments

To my Mother: Annette Joyeux a special thanks, as one does not understand love, until a mother gives it to you. My mother was the single most important person, who gave me the strength and will to fight back, to never give up.

To the many more not mention and know who they are, thank you for everything.
