It's rare that I come out of character . I have maybe twice in 2 years .
Last year I did to ask you , to help us , find a cure for Type 1 Juvenile Diabetes .
This year is no different .
My daughter Stephanie has Juvenile Diabetes .Steph is a one of the lucky ones . She NOW has a pump to help monitor and deliver insulin to her body .
Most people with Type 1 Diabetes don't have pumps . Her blood sugars are coming in-line much easier now . She's always been very good at monitoring her diet , but now she is almost like a normal kid .The other night we went out to dinner and for the 1st. time we could eat as a family , at our own discretion . Before we had to eat at regimented time . Now Steph can eat almost anything off the menu . The freedom she is having of eating at anytime is making her feel great . That being said this is anything but a cure .
I posted some great news the last year about Stem Cell Research and The Research being done at the Sick Children's Hospital in Toronto . I know we are very close to finding a cure , and with your help (this is where I'm gonna ask for some cash) the cure(s) will be found .
Yesterday we raised over $500.00 at our 3rd. annual Diabetes Garage sale .
Here's a shot of Steph after .
Thanx to everyone who helped and who donated items to be sold .
What wasn't sold was given to charity .
If ya want to donate to Steph's
team click on here-> J.D.R.F.
At this time I want to thank all who donated to the J.D.R.F. walk .
To all my friends and family who helped on the drive , thank you .
We exceeded our goals again this year !!!
Steph and my family really appreciates it .
Hopefully the cure is near .
All who have this disease do have a healthy future now that research is getting better .
God Bless You All .
