thisiscaleb.wordpress.com Caleb has Type 1 diabetes. He was diagnosed shortly before turning 4. He currently uses an insulin pump – the Omnipod (same as his hero Nick Jonas). We are hopeful that Denise Faustman and her team and/or the JDRF will be able to cure this disease in the near future. But they are still in need of funding to do so.
Diabetes is a leading health concern in this nation, with nearly 24 million people in the United States living with the disease. Unfortunately, many of them do not even know it. Award-winning actress Jean Smart has been named ambassador for the newest public service initiative for the Entertainment Industry Foundations Diabetes Aware. Launched five years ago, Diabetes Aware is a national educational campaign that informs Americans about the importance of early detection, monitoring and proper management of this progressive disease. So know your (blood sugar) number and share this video with your loved ones. It could be one less number to worry about. For more information on this effort, go to www.nationaldiabetesgoal.com
