Stories

Read the stories of some of the children and families who have benefited from the services of the Caring Program.

Elijah

"We did not have time to come up for air and we had so much news to digest. We were in the middle of a whirlwind at a time when it was critical for us to make informed decisions regarding his care, modify our home environment, adjust our lifestyles to properly care for him and make sure we had the resources to make it through his treatment protocol with the ability to financially recover."

Megan

"Pam gave us hope. And she helped me to find my voice to advocate for Megan. I know that Megan's diabetes is a life-long battle to maintain her health and well-being. But I'm relieved to have Pam in our lives to help us through the rough times and thankful for her ongoing support."

Travis

"Today we feel like we have a pretty good understanding of diabetes. I feel like I am capable of making good choices and I know that Lisa has been a huge part of helping me to get to this point. I remember one of the first things Lisa had said to me in the beginning was that diabetes wouldn't always be my life, it would become part of my life. Thank you Lisa for helping us make diabetes a part of our life."
