Help Theddie raise money

Hi, I’m Theddie, a Haitian woman, an elementary school teacher, a proud mom, and a fighter living with type 1 diabetes. Every day, I balance teaching young minds, being a mom to my two children, my son also has type 1 diabetes, and managing my own health. It’s a lot to juggle, but it’s my life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Diabetes is a constant part of our daily routine—whether it’s checking blood sugar levels, managing insulin doses, or staying aware of the emotional and physical toll it takes on my family. But through it all, my son and I share a bond of resilience, and we keep pushing forward together. Our challenges have only made us stronger, and they’ve fueled my determination to raise awareness and make a difference.

I’m running my first 5K to raise funds for diabetes research and support the incredible work being done to help people like me and my son. This run is more than just a race for me—it’s a symbol of hope for a future where diabetes no longer holds anyone back.

Thank you for supporting me on this journey. Your help means the world to me and my family. Together, we can move closer to a cure.
