Well, it's not one of my better pictures, Jaye, but it's ok!

I hope some of you can help me. I will be Walking for a Cure for my Granddaughter Jordyn who is 15 1/2 years old and has Juvenile diabetes since right before she turned 11. The JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) has done many wonderful things in the research to cure this awful disease.

Jordyn is doing very well right now. She has just started using an insulin pump and her diagnosis has gone from JD "Uncontrolled", to JD "Controlled". This is wonderful, wonderful news for her. She is such an upbeat young lady and has handled herself with such maturity since being diagnosed. This is a terrible disease for an adult to have, (ask Jaye), but for a child, it is so, so sad.

If you would care to donate to the JDRF through me, you can make an online donation here:

[HYPERLINK@walk.jdrf.org]

There will be a place to say donate now and I am registered under Joyce Thomas, walking for Jordyn's Jammers (walk is held in Dayton, Ohio this coming Saturday 10/3). I thank you in advance for helping me, Jordyn and all the other little ones with JD.

I love each and every one of you!
