Kids With Diabetes Share Their Stories

4 minute pilot. Experience makes the best teacher: kids and their parents share all in this honest and thoughtful video guide for families newly diagnosed with a child with diabetes.

Once the final version is completed, we will provide a youtube link for viewing. If you are a parent of a child newly diagnosed with diabetes, and are interested in receiving a complimentary dvd, please send me a message to be put on the waiting list.

A very special thanks to Jack, Alex, Maggie and Dave for sharing their stories.
