Dear Sir or Madam,

Over the past several years, it seems that Diabetes has become pandemic. The sheer number of "new" diabetics means that diabetes is now a statistical universe. I have a great deal of interest in the characteristics of this universe.

I asked the American Diabetic Association for this information and was given your address. I am interested in the statistical breakdown in terms of age, sex, fasting blood sugar level, type of
diabetes and perhaps family history and suspect this analysis is something you have already done I don’t believe that a such a summary would violate anyone’s privacy.

Respectfully,
