TuDiabetes Life Coachs (we have a tie between two members):
About one of them: "Is there a nicer person on TuD? She is always so uplifting and positive, never has a negative word, and has faced so many challenges this year, TuD would not be such a great place without Robyn, and her fantastic soundtrack : ) "
About the other one: "She is there for the community at large to help and support wanting nothing in return. Her pure intent to lift others up and brighten their day comes across in her daily contributions.
The winners are Robyn:

TuDiabetes Active Lifestyle Fans (we also have a 2-way tie):
About one of them: "She lives life to the fullest and shares her boating adventures in a way that shows that type 1 doesn't need to slow you down one bit!"
About the other one: "His triathlons are inspirational! His dedication to staying active is reflected in his great A1c."

TuDiabetes Crusaders (two people who advocate for two different causes):
About one of them: "Her involvement goes from the very personal to widespread, for example her advocacy for the California bill 1802 which would allow school personnel to volunteer to administer insulin to kids with diabetes at school."
About the other one: "She not only crusades for diabetes but also for people with diabetes Type 2. I see a lot of T2 people at tuD, but don't often hear from many of them."
The winners are Lisa Shenson:

and Lizmari (a.k.a. The Diabetic Welfare Queen):

Last, we want to acknowledge someone very special from Canada who is no longer among us:
Clarence "The Amigo" Haynes: "He invested every breath he had sharing the news of diabetes to everyone and anyone who would listen to what he had to say." He left this world on Dec. 5, at age 93. He had been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 1977, 33 years ago...
Congrats to all the winners! In the coming weeks we will be sending you a small recognition on behalf of all the members and Andreina will be sending you a badge you can sport proudly on the header of your profile page!

Oh wow! I'm really shocked at this - last time I won any type of award was when I was 7 - and I sent in a butter scotch candy to a radio station for getting some sort of prize for the Candyman movie (Sammy Davis Jr. sang in it - way before many of your D's - aging myself here). I feel very honoured to share this with all of you. To me - we are all winners in living with our diabetes - and no individual can be indivdually picked!!! What more can I say?
Sipping on my scotch here :) (I'm such a bad ### D aren't I?).
