Josie Edlefson
Youth Ambassador on what she wants people to know about T1D
T1D is not caused by something I did or didn't do. I can do anything anyone else can, I just need insulin. It doesn't take a vacation, having it is a 365 day a year job that needs a cure. By you learning more about T1D, we are one step closer to raising awareness and finding a cure!
