Hello Friends and Family –
As many of you know our son Brady was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes four years ago at the age of three. This disease forces our son to endure sugar checks, shots, and a rollercoaster of highs and lows. His constant courage, bravery, grace, and perseverance are an inspiration to all of us. Between learning at school, participating in sports, being a big brother, and a good friend, Brady can count carbs, balance insulin boluses and keep on moving.
As his parents, we will never give up on Brady’s cure. We will not stop until we can tell Brady that he does not have to check his sugar anymore, or give boluses, or count carbs. For this reason we will be walking in JDRF’s walk for a CURE on April 27, 2013 at Carowinds. We invite all of you to be part of our walk team and part of Brady’s cure. We will not give up on Brady’s dream and cannot accomplish it without your love and support. We invite you to view our 2013 video at http://youtu.be/RnRLtAEZHlE
JDRF is the global leader in Diabetes research and 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. They have recently partnered with Johnson and Johnson on the Artificial Pancreas Project. They also are leaders in beta cell transplants, encapsulation and smart insulin. These new technologies would not be so close to market if it was not for JDRF. We choose to support this organization because we know that 85 cents of every dollar raised goes directly to improve Brady’s life.
