Friday, November 16, 2007 is Diabetes Awareness Day Special ColumbiaMagazine.com story Adair County CJE Ann Melton and Columbia Mayor Pat Bell have proclaimed Friday, November 16, 2007, as Diabetes Awareness Day in Adair. The proclamation is intended to increase awareness of the disease about the risk factors and symptons related to diabetes, including blindness, heart disease, kidney disease, stroke, and leg or foot amputations.
