I need $10! On October 13th I’m walking for diabetes. When I posted this originally, I wrote about my friend whose son was diagnosed 5 years ago. The fact is, I know many people whose children live with this scary condition and I’m sure you do, too. The reason I want to help is because I have seen how much solace and relief an organization like this can provide a parent. When you suddenly discover that your child has a chronic medical condition and it’s up to you to manage it, it’s both terrifying and overwhelming. I hear stories about school nurses being nervous about having a diabetic child in the school under their watch. It’s a huge responsibility. Organizations like JDRF are not only working toward a cure, they really help support the families so they can adjust to their new situation. They throw you a life raft. My goal has been raised so now I need a lot more help. (I hope this isn’t like a Peter Principle situation.) I’m also hoping that if you’ve read this far, you’ll click on the link and add $10 to the pot. Lots of little bits go a long way. Thank you so much if you’ve already donated, and thanks to those who even consider it.
