Meeting with the Congressman
I had the honor of being invited to the United States House of Representatives Buffalo office to meet with our local Congressman, Brian Higgins, along with the JDRF team to thank him for his support of ongoing medical advances and the Special Diabetes Program. JDRF has a program called Promise to Remember Me, which connects kids and adults living with Type 1 Diabetes with legislators to share their struggle and the importance of continued research funding.
It was heartwarming to experience Congressman Higgins’s belief in the development towards finding a cure for Type 1 Diabetes. I was also so impressed with Joshua and Adrianna, two young people living with Type 1 that joined us and spoke about their appreciation and their hope for the future. They are truly champions, not only for themselves but all their counterparts living with the same challenges.
Seek Happiness,
