Don’t worry, the whole video will be shown at a later date. Clark decided to join me on set today and it’s pretty darn cute not to share right away. I can’t stop laughing and laughing is very welcome with all the challenges Diabetes brings each day. I hope you get a big smile as you watch my attentive assistant and me! #diabetesawareness #diabetescare #diabetes #rescuedog
