Congratulations on the Diabetes Special Issue!
You are to be commended for this excellent special issue of PTJ concerned with diabetes.
Given the apparent expertise of the physical therapists involved as authors of many of the papers in this issue, it is both amazing and tragic that the American Diabetes Association still fails to acknowledge physical therapists as members of the diabetes health care team (see www.diabetes.org/whos-who-on-your-health-care-team/your-health-care-team.jsp).
Hopefully this special issue will inspire more of our colleagues to become further involved in diabetes prevention and management.
