"Being a diabetic, I cherish this book. I read Bo and Spike's book on what it is like to be a juvenile diabetic and marveled at their ability to inform people about how to cope with juvenile diabetes. When I read Virginia's book I was doubly impressed. She tells it like it is and gave warmth and security to her children. I found it very moving and very valuable." -- Larry Hagman
