My Story…

We (Nichole, Sarah's mom & Giuliana, Sarah's sister) are running for our 12 year old daughter and sister Sarah. Sarah is fierce, brave, smart, loving, loyal, caring, athletic, fun and friendly, the list goes on! Since her unexpected diagnosis on August 3rd, 2021 when she was 8 years old we have certainly had our ups and downs. Every day throws us all a curveball. No matter what though, Sarah always perseveres! In the end, she never lets T1D get in the way of lacrosse, basketball, swimming, biking, school, camp or anything that life has to offer her! For our family, It's a team effort. Day in and day out 24 hours a day, all hands on deck. It can be exhausting for everyone involved but we all work together to allow for Sarah to live her life to the fullest. Since her diagnosis, every chance that Sarah has to make a wish, the wish is always to find a cure! 4 years and counting the wish is still the same! Each year events like the falmouth road race gets us that much closer. Please donate to help make Sarah's wish come true! Her and many others living with T1D need to live a life without the thousands of extra daily decisions and disruptions!  We run for the day when Sarah can make a wish that doesn't have to be related to curing T1D! 

Description

Welcome to my personal Breakthrough T1D fundraising page!

I have joined Breakthrough T1D to raise funds for the millions of people living with and affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D). The money I raise will help Breakthrough T1D fund critical research to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people's lives until no one has to fear developing the disease.

Type 1 diabetes is a life-threatening autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas stops producing insulin—a hormone essential to the ability to get energy from food. It strikes both children and adults suddenly and changes life as they know it forever. It cannot be prevented and there is no cure.

Breakthrough T1D is the largest nongovernmental funder of T1D research and the only global organization with a strategic research plan to fight T1D. This science is complex and costly, and every dollar Breakthrough T1D is able to direct toward research comes from donors like you.

The challenge I have set for myself — to raise money for Breakthrough T1D and to race — is modest compared to the daily challenges of life with T1D, which involves a 24/7, unrelenting cycle of blood sugar testing and insulin injections to manage the disease.

Please support me and donate to my fundraising campaign. Your gift will make a difference for millions of people affected by this devastating, life-threatening disease. Won't you please give to Breakthrough T1D as generously as possible today?

Thank you for your support!
