Welcome to my personal JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes fundraising page! Me & my family will all be taking part in this year?s Walk to raise funds to improve the lives of all people affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D).  Since last year, I've started working with a woman who's son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when he was 3 years old.  Currently, he's only a year older than my daughter Paige & it breaks my heart to hear the struggles their family has had to go through since he's been diagnosed.  And they know it never goes away... at least until there is a cure.

Because we are so blessed with healthy children, I cant imagine not supporting a cause like this & participating in such a wonderful cause.  Even walking with my BFF in middle school every year gave me a sense of accomplishment, but now I am walking as a mother and want my children to know that even at their age they can help by doing something as simple as walking!

I am asking for your support.  Please donate to my personal fundraising efforts.  By doing so, you can help me make a difference for millions of people living with type 1 diabetes.

Did you know that:

• T1D is an autoimmune disease that comes on suddenly and strikes both children and adults at any age?
• T1D has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle?
• Those living with T1D must carefully balance insulin doses with eating and daily activities throughout the day and night?
• Those living with T1D must test their blood sugar by pricking their fingers for blood 6 or more times a day?

As the leader of the type 1 diabetes community, JDRF unifies global efforts to cure, treat and prevent T1D.  JDRF will not rest until T1D is fully conquered.  Every little bit helps!

Thank you so much for your support!
