In June of 2022, I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. For those who may not know, Type 1 happens when your body stops making insulin, which is what helps control blood sugar levels. It’s an autoimmune condition—not something caused by what you eat or do—and it’s something you’re born with, even if it isn’t diagnosed right away.

It’s been a long journey, but one I’ve faced head-on. This year, I’m participating in a walk to raise money for Camp Seale Harris, a place that means so much to me.

Last summer, I spent an unforgettable week at Camp Seale Harris alongside other campers with Type 1. It was a week full of fun, laughter, and connection—a time to simply be a kid without the weight of our diagnosis.  This camp provides an incredible opportunity for kids like me, and your support can help make that possible for me and even more campers. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference!

Thank you for helping me get back and give back to a place that has given me so much!
