On May 1, 2011 our families world was changed forever. Allison (our middle child) was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes - but life as we knew it could not stop. All of our activities and our other children did not change just a new twist on how to manage this new world. Figuring it out together is challenging and this is our new world.....

The World Shares in Diabetes Awareness...

Tomorrow - Nov. 14 is World Diabetes Day!


What should you do - get your BLUE ON!! Wear some blue in honor of this day and the awareness of the worldwide epidemic that is Diabetes.


In 2011 Diabetes was the cause of 4.6 million lives worldwide. This isn't just a growing problem in the United States - and in some countries a diagnosis with diabetes can be lead to death very quickly due to the lack of needed medicines and the basic understanding of the symptoms.

So tomorrow - bring out some blue and think or learn more about diabetes and all those around the world that need a cure!

Until there is a cure,
Jennifer
