Diabetes is a circus

Managing diabetes sure can feel like a 3-ring circus sometimes - the carb tracking, the supplies and equipment, the interactions with a host of interacting adults, the updates on the latest in research and clinical work, and, oh yeah, what's Shelby want to do with her life!  Actually, having only three rings might be a welcome streamline!

But really I'm talking about the theme for this year's walk.  It's going to be a circus theme!

For those of you who know our family fairly well, you know that a circus theme - particularly if there are clowns involved - is a true test of our devotion to the JDRF cause.  You know that Shelby, in particular, is deathly afraid of clowns!  Still we are gamely pressing forward!

To celebrate the circus theme, we are doing RED Team Shelby shirts this year!  In the past, we've done blue, yellow, burgundy, white and, perhaps our all time favorite, the Aloha shirt! This year, its RED.

We're still working on pricing details (usually they are under $20 each), but we need to get your sizes.  So e-mail in your size today (teamshelby@yahoo.com) and how many shirts you'll likely need.  We'll confirm the other details shortly.
