Fund A Cure
We are so excited to introduce you to our 2022 Kansas City Fund A Cure family, the Wisemans!
Tim and Becky Wiseman, along with sons, Christian and Lucas, live in Kansas City, MO with adult daughter, Dekota living nearby. In January 2020, at 11 years old, Lucas was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The worry for Lucas and his future was immediate for Tim and Becky. A week following the diagnosis, Becky had the opportunity to meet two other parents whose children have T1D and connected with JDRF. These meetings left Becky and her family feeling inspired and empowered. Together, they knew they could make a difference. The Wiseman family wants to be a voice for the T1D community, and they ask all of you to use your voice and support to bring us closer to JDRF’s vision of a world without type 1 diabetes.
