Why I Fight

February 27, 2010
By Anonymous

I’m fighting for a cure to get rid of tears, hospital visits and daily checks.

I’m fighting for a cure to get rid of syringes, injections and medication.

I’m fighting for a cure to get rid of bleeding fingers, teasing and concern.

I’m fighting for a cure to get rid of the pain, the toughness and risks

I’m fighting for a cure because nobody, especially children, should have to live with









Diabetes
