Hi there all! It's time to bring Kids Can Make a Difference back to life! If we all take a moment to make just one post or respond to someone elses I know that we can share a lot and learn a lot!
I know it's been a very long time since I've been on and that the group has been inactive for a while... but I am going to try to pop on when I can and post!
I would like to encourage/challenge every member of this group to:
*Create one new topic
*Respond to someone elses topic
*Introduce/Re-introduce yourself
*Write a recommendation for your favorite book/web site/show that teaches you how and inspires you to make a difference
I look forward to getting to know everyone (again?!?) and am excited to see this group become active!

sleep. God, I need
that...
A cure. The end of
diabetes. The idea that
my child might gain a

in - but something I
challenged Miss N's
endocrine doctor over on
Day One. She had it
coming -...
Did you know that sugar
is currently being added
to milk without the need
for a label? and now they
want to do the same thing
with aspartame? Two
powerful dairy
organizations, The
International Dairy Foods
Association (IDFA) and
the National Milk...
Brother Bear lives for
sports; eats, sleeps and
breathes basketball. The
amazing amount of work
and effort he put into
making the freshman high
school team forces me to
look at my own fitness
journey, and wonder at
his committment in awe.
Already, he ...
Say A1C in mixed company,
and you're sure to get a
few perplexed looks. Say
it in a room full of type
1 diabetics and you might
catch a few groans, a few
questions, or possibly no
acknowledgment at all.
HbA1C, a lab test known
as a hemoglobin A1C
loo...
Well friends another year
is just about gone and we
still have
War,disease,abuse in all
formsand hatred in our
world.
I think at

ground in defeating all
of these and at other
times I feel frustrated
that it seems ...
