Survivors

by

Daughter, Lessa, writes for 451 at www.watchingsurvivor.com. She has had some good communications with past Survivor contestants - one of whom is Billy Garcia.

Billy is going to walk for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation fundraiser! Hey, it’s at King’s Island near Cincinnati!!! We’ve been there, Lessa! Well, you were little and all, but, hey - WE’VE BEEN THERE!!!

That’s kinda coolSeems he is going to take part in a walk for diabetes - and needs your help to meet his goal. So I am going to post a link both to Lessa’s story about it - and to his fundraising page. Hey! He only needs to raise another $60 to meet his goal!!!! Wouldn’t you like to be the one to boost him over? What are you waiting for . . . go on now - git! and then come back, of course.

I am firmly of the opinions that education will win the war on many things - including disease. It takes all of us to make a difference - no matter how corny that sounds. So, go on over and take a look at the Reality for Diabetes page and see who all is taking part.
