Brief Summary

Diabetes with poor sugar control can lead to blindness, heart attacks, and amputations. Latinos are more at risk for diabetes. A fotonovela is a type of comic book commonly read by Latinos that might be a way to teach them about the risk of high sugars. The researchers will give patients either a fotonovela about diabetes or one with nothing to do with diabetes. Then they will compare how well sugars were controlled afterward in each group. This way they can see if these fotonovelas were useful.
