I am team Captian Alycia and on May 18 we are walking to cure diabetes. My little sister Jocelyn was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in early May last year. Please support her and everyone else that was diagnosed in donating and/or walking to find a cure.
Jocelyn was diagnosed her junior year in high school. She is now a senior and she gets fairly good grades. She is involved in the musical and plays in the highschool band as a percussionist. She is also involved in the community bands around Cape May. Jocelyn has come such a long way when she was admitted to the hospital that very first day. She spent 3 days at Cooper Hospital before she was released due to high blood sugars. When I got the call from our mom, I was worried beyond words because I did not know much on the topic of diabetes. I did not know if it was life threatening but my mom kept me up to date with the progress she was making. I have learned so much from my sister. She went from learning to inject insulin into herself to getting the pump and making it look so easy. It has been a rough year and I am so proud of her and would never in a million years thought that she would be a Type One Diabetic. Because she is such a wonderful person and a caring loving sister, I am walking on May 18 on the Wildwood Boardwalk to support the cure for diabetes.
We will have team shirts for the day for the walk. Please let me know if you want to be part of the team. My email is babiiipebbles2@gmail.com. please include in the subject box "walking to cure diabetes".
Thank you for your support and donations.
