Download or read book Un doing Diabetes Representation Disability Culture written by Bianca C. Frazer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-21 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the 21st century insulin crisis provokes protest and political dialogue, public conception of diabetes remain firmly unchanged. Popular media representations portray diabetes as a condition couched in lifestyle choices. In the groundbreaking volume (Un)doing Diabetes, authors destabilize depictions so powerful, so subtle, and so unquestioned, that readers may find assertions counterintuitive. (Un)doing Diabetes is the first collection of essays to use disability studies to explore representations of diabetes across a wide range of mediums- from Twitter to TV and film, to theater, fiction, fanfiction, fashion and more. This disability studies approach to diabetes locates individual experiences of diabetes within historical and contemporary social conditions. In undoing diabetes, authors deconstruct assumptions the public commonly holds about diabetes, while writers doing diabetes present counter-narratives community members create to represent themselves. This collection will be of interest to scholars, activists, caregivers, and those living with diabetes.

Book excerpt: "PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in perceived confidence in diabetes self-management of adolescents participating in an eleven-day residential diabetes camp. METHODS: Ninety-nine campers with type 1 diabetes between the ages of 10 and 16 attending Camp Ho Mita Koda, a diabetes residential summer camp located in Newbury, Ohio, participated in this study. Campers were given the 13-item Patient Activation Measure (PAM) on the first and last day of the camp session to examine changes in confidence in diabetes management at the end of the camp experience. Five questions were included on the post-survey to examine the impact of Camp Ho Mita Koda specifically. Hemoglobin A1c values were obtained by Camp Ho Mita Koda staff on the first day of each camp session and used as an indicator of glycemic control. Differences in PAM scores were evaluated in two groups, participants with hemoglobin A1c values less than the mean value and participants with hemoglobin A1c values above the mean. RESULTS: Ninety-six campers completed the pre-survey on the first day of the camp session and ninety-two campers completed the post-survey at the end of camp. Data obtained from the PAM were examined two different ways, by cumulative score and responses to individual questions. Significant differences between cumulative pre- and post-scores were found as mean scores increased from the pre-survey to the post-survey (p

Book excerpt: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic lifelong endocrine system disease that can severely impact the physical and psychological well-being of those diagnosed with the condition. Considerable research has focused on the initial adjustment to the diagnosis and how children and their families manage the medical aspects of diabetes. There has also been an increase in the attention given to the psychological impact that chronic medical conditions can have on individuals. Attending a diabetes summer camp is a popular summer activity for children to learn and practice ways to manage the impact of diabetes on his or her life. A diabetes summer camp allows children to engage in a fun recreational and educational program with other children who have experienced what they are going through. This study examined the utilization of a diabetes summer camp as a way to reduce the daily psychological impact of diabetes as well as to improve general attitudes toward the illness. Seventy-nine out of the 120 children (65.8% participation rate) attending ADA Camp Carefree participated in this study during the summer of 2009 on the first and last day of camp. Children completed questionnaires assessing levels of depression, anxiety, self-concept, and attitude towards having diabetes. Data analysis indicated that a statistically significant decrease in depression and anxiety, as well as a significant increase in self-concept and attitude towards illness occurred between the beginning and end of camp. Attending a diabetes summer camp can be an effective tool to help manage the psychological impact living with a chronic medical condition can have on an individual.
