| Sometimes Adie Amazes Me A lot of you know Adie's story pretty well but for those that don't..... I have diabetes and discovered a while back that Adie was picking up on my low blood sugars. So I now have a medical alert dog!!!! I was at WalMart the other day and talking to a woman about -I don't even remember what we were talking about - Well anyway, Adie started getting really hyper and kept trying to get to this woman. I thought I was going to have to leave because of her behavior - then it dawned on me - I asked the woman if she had diabetes and she said she yes. I suggested that she might want to go have lunch because Adie was alerting her. The woman said she was starting to feel a little shaky but both of us were really surprised that Adie had alerted a stranger! And here I thought she only had eyes (and nose) for me! What an amazing little girl huh? |

| diabetes I am also a diabetic and Belle started alerting me about 8 months ago. She scratches at me until she has my attention. My doctor says she thinks these dogs smell something in our skin when our blood sugar drops. I always carry a tube of glucose with me where ever I go. I guess Belle is paying me back for the 2 times she started having hypoglycemia when she was so tiny. I gave her some of my glucose. These dogs are so special, I think they develope such a close relation with the people who love them they have certain instincts. They can also be taught to alert of things. I read an article about a Schnauzer that can alert on a persons area that contains cancer cells. My psychic, Sylvia Browne, says dogs can see a blue aura around people who like dogs. If you think about it, dogs do tend to go around people who like them and avoid those that don't. |

| That is amazing. You should contact one of the news programs that do medical segments. They might want to do a feature on your little Adie, "the amazing live glucose monitor!" Animals have so much intuition.
