Site update and situation 29 December 2011
Well... I am about to lose my job due to ill health in a few weeks, this has been an ongoing situation since January 2011. I will be able to put more time into the site and add new topics. Are there any issues that you want or think should be covered? Let me know.
https://www.ami-diabetic.com/ is secure for another 12 months or so and I wish to make all information about diabetes available in one place, free for everyone. I will do my best to make sure that this is the case for at least the next 12 month... After that is anyone’s guess due to financial constraints.
I hope that you have all enjoyed the site in its first year. I wish you all a very happy and prosperous new year for 2012.
Look out for my tweets :)

Google AdSence did me over!
I have had clicks to the site and had around £45. I got an email to say that there was ' invalid activity' on the account. They will not explain anyting more and an appeal was turned down. I have also heard others just this week who's accounts have also been disabled. Disabled accounts will not recieve any of thier earned money. This just shows that a greedy company gets greedier by the day.
I will never use google again!
