"Word in Your Hand"

A diabetes awareness video was the result of the contributions of hundreds of members of TuDiabetes.com, an online social network for people touched by diabetes.

The video pulled from over 120 photos that were submitted between August and November, 2007 by members of TuDiabetes.com for the "Word in Your Hand" project. The original music was written by Albert Chen and the video was edited by Luis Garcia, who originally came up with the idea for the project.

TuDiabetes.com was launched by Manny Hernandez in March 2007. The social network has passed 1,300 members from all over the world, with the United States, the UK, Canada, Australia, South Africa, India, Belgium and Singapore among the countries represented. All countries were represented in the project.
