Hello friends.. I just wanted to reach out to my fellow friends and posters to say that I am sponsoring a Diabetes walk on September 30th at Jones Beach. My girlfriends father and my grandfather passed away due to complications with diabetes. It's something that really hits home with me and I'm sure some of you as well. I would be honored if you could join me at the walk.. But I do realize that it might not be ideal for some of our out of state posters . I have enclosed a link if you feel like making a small donation to my diabetes team . Over the years I have been very fortunate to meet some of the greates people on this website and I would never think to post something like this if I didn't consider you all like family.
