Juliann's Personal Page

Welcome to my personal JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes fundraising page!  I'll be taking part in this year?s Walk to raise funds to improve the lives of all people affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D).  If you ask any one of us with T1D, we will tell you it is difficult and life threatening.  And it never goes away. I personally have been living with T1D for 19 years, diagnosed at age 10 and my life has never been the same. It is a challenge every day and I have to think about every thing I eat, drink, and do and how it will affect my blood sugars - which in turn affects my mood and energy level. 

I am asking for your support.  Please donate to my personal fundraising efforts.  By doing so, you can help me make a difference for the 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.  Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as possible?

Thank you for your support!
