This page is dedicated to my daughter Stephanie, who was diagnosed with Diabetes when she was only 4 years old!! In my eyes, she is my hero and on this site I will have some excellent Diabetes sites. And hopefully inform people about this horrible disease!

This is Stephanie isn't she adorable! She is 11 years old. She is like any other child other than having Diabetes. She doesn't mind it too much, sometimes the shots get to be a pain. She does finger pokes 4 times a day and receives 2 shots of insulin a day. Some of the things she likes to do is read fantasy books, crafts, collect Unicorns (she has 40!), play with her friends. She is also active in Karate and is a brown belt!!
 
        Here is a picture of her at Christmas, she looks so pretty!
Here is Stephanie at a Colorado Rockies game in June 2000.
