Patti,
My company has a large division working on diabetes therapies, but that is a tough condition to beat. Patients, doctors and scientists are making progress though, just need some more time.
Is Theresa okay, is she going to be okay?
Thoughts and prayers are with her.

edit: I'll forward your page to some fellow researchers.. it is good remind them the real reason why we do what we do. Sometimes, the industry is soooo caught up in stocks and economics, that we forget the work is about people. It is very, very embarrassing.
Theresa is an amazing kid. She refuses to let diabetes affect her life. We have met so many parents and kids who become...in Theresa words...weird and strange. She wants other kids to know that it is manageable and no big deal. She has been an inspiration to everyone who has met her. WOW am I a proud Dad. We completed the walk yesterday and the crowd that showed up was huge. Theresa was the single highest individual for donations. She is already setting her sights for next year. It’s hard to believe that roughly a year and half ago that Patti and I were standing in a hospital room having almost lost her two different times in 48 hours. The big guy works in mysterious ways. We consider ourselves very blessed. Thanks for helping the researchers keep the eye on the target so others may not have to go through such trials. She is doing great and just got great report from the doctors. I did ask if they have shot that might help with her temp driving or least something that they could give me.
