In this past year I have learned more than I ever wanted to know about Juvenile Diabetes. During this time, my daughter, now in her 50's, was diagnosed with T1D - it's other name. It is a life-changing and ongoing challenge, taking it's place among other mysterious autoimmune diseases.
My questions are: what causes this and how can it be cured? Funds raised at this Ball go toward finding the answers.
Any contribution to assist in this effort is greatly appreciated.
