Please Support my family and I in the 2012 TELUS Walk-Calgary event

Hi everyone,

My family and I are participating in the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes this year, and we would love to have your support!

I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes through a routine blood test when I was pregnant with my son. Learning that I have a chronic, life-threatening illness just when my husband and I were preparing to bring a new life into the world was one of the most difficult things I've ever faced. But with the help and support of organizations like the JDRF, I will be there to watch my boys grow up, just like any other mother.

Visit our personal fundraising page to make a donation online.

If you are going to the Calgary Event, Let me know! I would love to meet my fellow TUers out there!

Thanks!

Kelly Layne
