feminine ideal. "I usually sculpt directly onto the body and only sketch very roughly, if
at all,” says Turet. “I’m fascinated by the impact that fabric can have when combined
with a basic un-worked shape, the way it looks and moves and creates an
understated sense of drama.” For more visit www.tk.net.nz.

Diabetes
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes is a condition in which the body cannot sufficiently
convert food into usable energy. The reason for his is a lack of
insulin - a hormone produced by a gland called the pancreas, or
failure of the body to respond normally to insulin.
Type 1 Diabetes occurs when the pancreas stops producing
insulin.
The condition can’t be prevented or cured, and has beenknown to
mankind since ancient times, and before insulin was discovered
and used in 1922,always resulted in death, usually quite quickly.
Type 1 Diabetes is treated with multiple daily injections, healthy
eating, regular exercise and constant monitoring of blood sugar
levels through taking small samples of blood from the fingertips.
Managing Type 1 Diabetes is a complexquestionof balance.
There are a large number of factors that influence blood sugar
levels and some of them you have no control over. They include
the amount and type of food you eat, the amount of insulin you
inject, all forms of exercise,drinking alcohol, and taking prescribed
and recreational drugs. Many less tangible factors are also
involved, often relating to the interaction of hormones in the body,
such as those produced during periods of stress,anxiety and
menstruation. A reliable but unpredictable part of everyday life for
most people.
Every year in Canterbury 30 young people under 20 years of age
are diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes,this translates to around 300
new cases in this age group nationwide each year.
The number of new cases each year has increased three to four
fold since records commencedin 1970.
Around 1 every 500 New Zealand school children has Type 1
Diabetes.It is the second most commonchronic childhood medical
condition behind asthma. Around 1 in 200 New Zealanders has
had a diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes.

Living with Diabetes is challenging and
life controlling. I’ve had Diabetes for
over 10 years now and I can honestly
say how it makes day-to-day living
extremely hard, and how I feel so
different from everybody else.
Luckily I received an insulin pump
thanks entirely to the fashion show
Magdalena held last year.
This pump, priced at $10,000 has
allowed me to live a normal life and
gives me back control.
Diabetes isn’t fun but it is liveable; only
with help and support. So thank you so
much for being here tonight, as you will
help another young Canterbury Youth
live the life most people take for
granted.
