Diabetes type 1

Just found out my mom back home has this has been hospitalized for the past 8 days. I'm so shock because she was always so health conscious. They are threatening to amputate her toe. How could she prevent this? Any health books you can recommend? I'm also worried about my health too.

    Well, if you doubt the doctor´s decision, you can always get a second opinion. I'm no doctor, but isn´t Type 1 diabetes the one where the cause is unknown? Like it may be your mother did everything right, but could still get it.

    One thing that's interesting to note about this is that diabetics are apparently advised to avoid hot springs (https://www.medicinenet.com/why_cant_people_with_diabetes_go_in_hot_tubs/article.htm) so I have to assume that would extend to onsen facilities, too.

Best places for One Piece merch/things to do?

My son has recently become very interested in all things One Piece, and I was wondering if any of you know some fun places to check out for merchandise or One Piece events/activities. I know there used to be the thing at Tokyo Tower, but that has since closed. Any tips would be appreciated!

What are you doing without?

Ever heard of the saying "Use it up, wear it out, make do, or do without"? I feel like it's ever-appropriate these days. Are there things that you're trying (or having) to do without, given the cost of living increases? I haven't bought new clothes in quite a while, and I feel like when we first moved here that was something I often did, almost like a hobby. These days I might not be the trendiest, but I use the clothes I have, and I guess I'm more comfortable in my style.

Every year, some years, one and done? How often do you visit local festivals?

One of our biggest annual festivals took place in the last week, and it got me thinking -- with your local area's annual festivals, do you go every year, some years, or check it out once and don't make a repeat appearance? I'd say it's a mixed bag for me: there are some I love going to each year, some that I go to every few years (e.g. if the weather really sucks I'll skip it), and some that I've been to once and didn't find the need to revisit. How about you?

Tips and Tricks for City-Cost images

Are you like me, relying on a mobile device for your photography? I shoot with an iPad Mini 4, now a vintage item! I can't update it to the latest version of iPadOS, but I still get a lot of use out of it. How do you shoot your photos? What photo apps or processing do you use? Have you got tips or tricks on how to shoot or edit the photos you use in blogs?
