PoAC: Preventative medicine

My MIL went for her regular checkup recently, with the doctor she's been going to for several decades now. He told her that her blood sugar was slightly elevated, just at the edge of normal range, and that because of this and a few other factors, he was going to send her to the diabetes prevention clinic. Today was her clinic appointment. I asked her permission to blog a bit about her experience there, because I found it to be an excellent example of our healthcare system operating at its best.

( An example of our system working in the best interests of everyone involved, including the taxpayer. )
