“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

Hi, welcome to my web page about diabetes. My name is Stephanie E. T (my initials are SET). I am 16 years old and in 11th grade. I was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes on August 14, 2000. That was the worst day of my life. I wasn't happy when I found out that I had to have shots for the rest of my life and poke my fingers all the time. I was scared and felt bad but now I know it is what I need to do so I am moving on with my life. I give PowerPoint presentations to help raise awareness. In November 2002 I received my insulin pump. I have really loved being on the pump. You can click here to find out more about it. I am working hard to help raise money for diabetes research and education. I need your help by either sponsoring me, joining TEAM STEPHANIE'S STEAMERS in the Walk to Cure Diabetes or participating in the events yourself. I hope you find some interesting information on my web page. Look here to see what I am doing now! I will be updating it often so check back to find out what I am doing and what you can do to help. In addition to all the activities that you can help with, I also have links to resources that have a lot of useful information about diabetes and my favorites. I also do a lot of fun things like horseback ridding swimming, soccer, softball and I have 2 PUPPIES one named Chester and one named Rusty. I was selected to represent Ohio at the 2003 JDRF Unite to Cure Diabetes/Children's Congress. Click here to read what I did while in Washington DC and see pictures of Children's Congress 2003. I have also been working hard as a Youth Ambassador for JDRF. Look here to see me on the Pumpwear Inc. web page. Look Here to see me on the JDRF Kids Online web page. Look HERE to see me on the Children With Diabetes Web Page! Click on each year below to see what I have done over the past 7 years.

I can give a PowerPoint presentation about Diabetes to your club or organization. My e-mail address is stephanie@setforacure.org
