I just want to spread the word to people with diabetes. .My son has
been Type 1 since 7 months.  At that time he was diagonosed,  the Docs
told me to look for renal failure  or blindness by this time in his
life, twenty four years later.

Instead, Phil (the son), and seven other Type1 diabetics are Racing
Across America - an Ultra Marathon 8 day - 24 hour cycling race.
http://raceacrossamerica.org to show that diabetics can live a cool
life.  They will go from San Diego to Atlantic City cycling non stop.

The team website is http://teamtype1.org

They are the diabetic answer to Lance Armstrong.

If you know any parents of diabetic kids - pass it on - I was a worried
sick mom 24 years ago - now I am a proud (sort of)  old one Hey, Janet
