My bloggy buddy Tanya “netchick” Davis was “convinced” by Buzz Bishop to do a 1/2 marathon in January in Disney World to raise money for diabetes research.
Since I know several people with diabetes and my maternal grandmother lost a leg because of diabetes (therefore I am at risk for it), I’ve pledged $100 towards Tanya’s goal of $4500. How about you?
This isn’t about Tanya or Buzz, it’s about giving some much needed research dollars towards curing diabetes. I know, because I keep an eye on this, that some real breakthroughs have been made recently.
How much more time will it take to find a cure?
How much more money will be needed?
Step up, how about $10? If you pledge $15 you can get a tax receipt.
Go ahead make a pledge towards Tanya’s goal, took me less than a minute.
Dare ya.
