    Beth,

    I was researching a site for a paper I have to write and I came across your posting. I myself have a 9 year old son Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in 2007 3 days before Thanksgiving. I read your posting during your travels and its very amazing how there are people out there in this world who are very kind and willing to go that extra mile to make sure our children are not inconvienced.
