his delightful book consists of a lot of experiences told in the form of stores. Interesting stories, well told with light humor.
Marilyn Garcia recounts several personal stories of her own and her friends. Even though she is an attorney, she writes really well with direct, clear, and amusing language. It is upbeat.
The stories are largely about the overseas travel of insulin users and pumpers. They are, of course, those of us with diabetes who have the most trouble when traveling.
I greatly enjoyed the stories. But anyone planning an overseas trip will benefit as much if not more from the tips section that makes up the last third of the book.
“Since I am donating a portion of the sale proceeds to find a cure for diabetes,” Marilyn writes, “more will go towards that goal if people purchase the book by mail order (check only) through diabetictraveltales.com. Donating a portion of sale proceeds guarantees that every sale will yield a donation.”
Mandean Press will publish Diabetic Travel Tales and Tips for $13.95 today, August 1. The ISBN of this 208-page soft cover book is 0976698501.
