[Diabetes-talk] {Disarmed} Fw: Join ArtificialPancreas Petition Today

[cheryl echevarria]

It is JDRF, I do a lot of volunteer work for them as well, I have JD or type 
1, we just has and and are having walk for a cure out here, and I am sure 
across the country. I have a vendor at all three tables to talk about my 
cruise for a cure this year in March 2012. so they gave me a table at all 3 
long island walks without paying the vendor prices.

We are not raising money for a cure, DAN.

JDRF is the one that does the fundraising to finding a cure.

I realize that some on this list has not had diabetes all of there lives and 
have had it as adults.

Well for someone who has had it all of her life and is basically a poster 
child for all the complications to Type 1 including blindness, kidney 
failure and amputee.

That we should be careful on who we say is legit and who is not.

Just like the American Diabetes Association, also legit, and I work with 
them as well to make the calls to congress as well about all the laws that 
have passed and the ones that we are fighting for.
