“I was diagnosed with diabetes at age 44 years of age. I am a Diabetes Champion because I live a healthy and active lifestyle. I educate and motivate others affected with the disease. I’m a Diabetes Champion because I live life to its fullest. I have been a canvasser for the Canadian Diabetes Association in Sarnia, Lambton for 20 years. There is a great need for financial dollars so we can find a cure for this serious disease which is becoming an epidemic. More and more canvassers are required to help alleviate this disease. I am constantly trying to recruit more canvassers for the Sarnia office and explain how important it is to get involved.”
