WBWW ~ Walk for JD

I am walking to raise money for Juvenile Diabetes.

JD, the son of a friend of mine was diagnosed with Type 1, Juvenile Diabetes, in January 2005. Since then his family has walked in the annual Walk to Cure Diabetes. I have walked 3 of the 4 times (I have a good excuse to miss the one, I was 7.5 months pregnant... with Twins.)

Well, guess what? It's that time of year again when we gear up for the JDRF annual Walk to Cure Diabeteshis diabetes. He is insulin dependent and has been on pump therapy for 4 years and it hasn't slowed him down a bit. He has continued to participate in gymnastics, soccer and baseball. JD was even able to attend golf camp and spend a week with his grandparents this summer. Along with his family, I am dedicated to helping find a cure for JD and the best way is through the annual walk. Since his diagnosis in 2005, JD has made great strides in controlling alk. Last year our team, JD's All-Stars, increased and we were able to exceed our team goal! This year, we would like to at least match that amount of $3000!! You can join the effort by clicking here and sending a tax deductible donation via credit card. I also have the button on the right of my blog. I have set my personal goal at $100.00

Here are a couple pictures of JD and Delaney

Way Back WHEN~esday

It was 2 years ago this month. I met the family that would soon change my life forever. Jess and her beautiful twin girls, Piper and Tuesday. We met in Roanoke, VA for a weekend. 4 women, 8 babies, a toddler and two teen girls. What a weekend! A year later, Tuesday was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma. I have never put so much heart and soul into prayers for anyone as I did for sweet Tuesday. Tuesday HAS changed my life forever! Sadly, Tuesday lost her fight with cancer in January of this year.

So for this weeks Way back, I am posting a picture of Jess and me on that first visit.

On this same trip I met Debi. Debi has become a very close friend of mine. If only we lived closer!

Miss you both!
Love you both!

Once upon a time, we went to Pittsburgh every year for The Big St. Patrick's Day Parade! The parade is this weekend, but once again, we are not going to be able to make it. However, we want the O'Laughlin family to know that we will be thinking about you and will be with you in spirit!

I promise she had on her St. Patrick's gear under her snow suit!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KAREN!

Today I am combining WBW with a Birthday wish to my older sister.







This is really making me wish my scanner was working. These pictures are pictures taken of pictures. They are in one of those REALLY old albums that are sticky and have the plastic cover over them to "protect" them! Sorry for the quality!

I thought since UF is playing this weekend for the SEC Championship, I would post something "Gator" related. BTW, UF won the National Championship in 2006, the year of this picture. Maybe it will bring us more luck!

GO GATORS!!
