See that little guy on the far right with the blond, fluffy hair? Yep. That one. He needs a cure. He is a brave little boy and has endured well all that diabetes has thrown his way. But we are hopeful. For the first time, scientists are predicting that a cure is achievable during his lifetime. So I will hang on to hope and I'll do my part to bring that cure to my little boy.The juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is the worldwide leader in funding research for type 1 diabetes. I strongly believe that when a cure is found, JDRF will have played a major role in that process. We love JDRF, their mission, and the support we've already received from their outreach programs.
On October 22, our family will be participating in the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes. We'd like to ask for your support in our fundraising efforts for this event. There are two ways you can donate to team Robby:
1. Go to www2.jdrf.org/goto/teamrobby. Click on donate to this team or donate to a walker- it all goes to the same place (I'll leave a link on my sidebar).
or
2. Join us for dinner at the Keller Chick-fil-a (Alliance Town Center) on Monday, October 3rd from 5-8pm. Order dinner and mention that you're supporting Team Robby and a portion of the proceeds from your meal will go directly toward our goal. We'd love to see you there!
Thanks again everyone for your support and generosity!
