Cayla's Sugar Babies

Hello! This year, we'll be taking part in JDRF's Walk to Cure Diabetes, along with one-half million other walkers across the country, as we try to reach our goal of raising $89 million.

Type 1, or juvenile diabetes, is a devastating disease that affects millions of people, a large and growing percentage of them children.  I will never forget the day my daughter Cayla was diagnosed; she was only 23 months old, now 16 years old.  The news was devastating to our entire family.  We were told at that time Cayla would have to take shots for the rest of her life.

There is some good news, though. JDRF is our best hope for finding a cure. It funds more type 1 diabetes research than any other charity worldwide and it's making progress along many promising paths toward better treatments and a cure.

Now, more than ever, you can make a crucial difference. Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as possible? Together, we can make the cure a reality!

Thank you in advance for helping to make a difference in Cayla's life and the lives of so many other children.
