How to Make Donations

There are a couple ways to make donations. The easiest way in my opinion is online. Crowdrise is dedicated to helping people have a safe venue to raise their funds. When you go to donate you pay through using an Amazon account (as in Amazon.com). It is very easy and very safe. It does ask you if you would like to add a processing fee, but you can easily say no. Here is the link.

The other way that you can donate is by simply writing a check out to "Joslin Diabetes Center" and mail them to me. By mailing the checks to me I will be able to input your donation into my donation tally on the Crowdrise website.

Thanks again for your generosity.

Boston Marathon

Believe it or not, this aging and overweight guy is going to be running the Boston Marathon in 14 weeks. I am running with Team Joslin, the great diabetes treatment facility that has helped our family and specifically TJ so much since his diagnosis 5 years ago. If you can donate to help me raise $3000 it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to my fundraising site. If you have an Amazon account this should be really easy.

Getting Older

33!! I am fine with it. All I want for my birthday is an early spring and a really nice striper to weigh in for the Striper Cup.

We took Thomas to Boston yesterday for some pump information and we decided on the CozMo insulin pump. It is just a little bit bigger than a cell phone and it has many options for keeping track of blood sugars and giving different insulin doses for different meals etc. Christine and I know a few people that have the CozMo and they love it. We were very happy that after we made the choice that the nurse was very happy that we had made that choice as well.

Music in our schools month is coming up which means Christine and I will not be able to take a comfortable breath until after the All State Music Conference. Christine and I look forward to this every year because we get to see old friends and eat nice food in a nice hotel. It is our yearly working vacation.
