Carson's Crusaders

Welcome to our JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes Team Page!  

We are taking the steps to help achieve JDRF's mission: to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research.  The money our JDRF Walk Team raises will go directly to support this life-changing research.

The JDRF Walk is a fantastic way to make a difference in the millions of lives of people affected by type 1 diabetes.  We are asking for your support. Now more than ever, EACH of us can make a real difference in the lives of people with type 1 diabetes.

My son, Carson, was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes 2 days after his 6th birthday.  What a way to spend your birthday with 3 days in the hospital right?  His diagnosis has really changed our lives.  Carson's diabetes needs constant attention.  To stay alive, people with type 1 diabetes must take multiple insulin injections daily or continually infuse insulin through a pump.  Each day, everyday, for the rest of Carson's life he will have to careully monitor food and insulin intake, as well as exercise to maintain a careful balance and avoid high or low blood sugar reactions that can be life-limiting or life threatening.

I am asking for your support to either join our team at the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes or just simply make a personal donation.

Thank you for your support and see you on Walk day!
