Lions thank JRMC educators for insight

To the Editor,

     The Monticello Lions Club and Jones Regional Medical Center held their first diabetes education evening on Nov. 9. The session was attended by 15 people. Julie Guthrie and Marilyn McCall from JRMC did a great job explaining the causes of Type 2 diabetes and how we can work towards preventing or delaying its onset. Julie and Marilyn told us facts that completely changed how we think about our diets, and both emphasized how important education is for people diagnosed with diabetes or pre-diabetes.

     Altogether, this was a very beneficial evening. The Monticello Lions thanks our attendees and the educators from JRMC.
