JDRF Event

Every year the JDRF has a Diabetes Walk that they sponsor to raise money for research. A few months prior to the walk they have a "kick-off" meeting/event to get us motivated to raise tons of money. They instruct us on how to write letters to companies, friends, family and strangers asking for donations. I guess I should be more passionate about doing so considering how badly I want them to find a cure, but I've never been the begging type. Along with the instruction for the parents comes some activities that all the diabetic children can participate in. Ethan has a great time meeting other kids who have D and especially the ones who have pumps. He kept pointing them out to me. The event is held at a hotel that has a water park attached to the the building...so after all the talk about the walk they let the kids go to the water park for free. Ethan was so excited to go today, unfortunately it was on a Sunday, but all the JDRF things are. Check out the video link if you want to see Ethan in action at the water park.
