Salaams,
Our first event was hosted by Somali Student Association(SSA) at Columbus State Community College(CSCC). The event took place on the 7th of March 2009 in Nestor Hall. Rashad Arman SSA's acting secretary introduced our group. He talked about the re-activation of our students group and its future plans. The event was attended by nurses, nursing student, CSCC student, CSCC faculty , other Somali health care professionals (respiratory therapist, Clinical laboratory technicians and Medical doctors) and guests.
Brenda Rendelman,RD, LD, CDE a Registered Dietitian from the Central Ohio Diabetes Association talked about prevention of Diabetes Mellitus and the role of nutrition. She educated us about the importance of portion sizing and the breakdown of the daily portion intake and provided suggestions on how to modify Somali cuisine to lead a healthy life. After refreshments Saida Yassin and I co-presented a lecture titled " Many faces of Diabetes Mellitus" which provided a review about diabetes Mellitus, it's definitions, classification, etiology, pathophysiology, treatment regimens and complications. We took a case scenario approach where Saida presented from a Physicians view the diagnosis, classification, treatment plan and chronic complications. While I discussed the etiology, pathophysiology and shared how nurses care for the diabetes patient at the bedside and what acute complications they may present within the emergency room. The event was educational , the attendees participated actively during the presentations and left promising to change the way they regard food and their lifestyle. So it was also successful. This educational event was necessary as I realized that we "Somali's" could be the next statistic in the diabetes epidemic if we fail to be aware of Diabetes Mellitus and its complication.
We had also invited representatives from different Somali community organisation to attend so that we could discuss Diabetes Mellitus impact on the Somali community. Except for a few who couldn't attend we were disappointed by their absence. Though we are partly responsible of sending the invites a bit late; We hope we will get better support next time.

Unfortunately there are a lot of AIDS/Herpes denials on Herbal cures still out there. I did research on them after I was tested HIV/Herpes positive I was so worried am I going to die soon. I continue my search again on herbal remedy for Std, then I found lots of testimony on how Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cured HIV/Aids, Herpes Virus,Copd, Hepatitis, Diabetes, On websites sharing their testimonies, which made much more sense to me. All the authors pronounce Dr Itua As a man with Good Heart, I pick interest in their testimonies and I contact him about my situation then he gave me procedure how it works, I proceed after one week he courier his Herbal Medicine to me and instruct me on how to drink it for two weeks to cure. I receive His Herbal Medicine so I drank it for two weeks as I was told then after 2 days I go for a test I found out I was cured from HIV/Aids & Herpes Virus, I pay homage to him 2 months ago to his country to celebrate with him on his African festival which he told me it usually happens every year. I know there are lots of (HIV)/Aids&Herpes Virus denials of Herbal Remedy movement the same few doctors and they represent a very small faction of the community. I could have died because I refused Natural Herbs Cures for so long, but luckily, by the grace of God I am alive to tell my story.
