I work in ministry at a church in Orange County and love the people I serve with. I volunteer with a group of young adults with varying mental and physical disabilities, and absolutely love it.

I am an aunt to 2 nieces and 2 nephews, and I adore them. (They live in my homestate of Oregon with the rest of my family.) I love reading and discussing books, writing, exercising, cooking, attempting to play the violin, and I love good music.

I'm trying to do life with diabetes as best as I can, but the more support and motivation from others in the same boat, the better off we'll all be.
