I’m not going to be covering the BioHub news that was released today from the DRI. Please check out the post Mike did at Diabetes Mine because that covers just about everything you need or want to know.
This post is about some un-related DRI news. Every so often the Diabetes Research Institute Foundation holds PEP (Parents Empowering Parents) Talks, which are a few hour mini conferences that allow parents and other PWD’s to discuss emotions, challenges, managing relationships, etc. There is one at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Fort Lauderdale this Saturday from 1-4 p.m. You can find more information on the DRI’s PEP Talk site.
After I signed up to attend the event, I was asked if I would participate in holding a breakout session with the teens in attendance. I am super excited to be able to do this and help answer any questions that I can. Amanda and I will be there, so if you are in the Fort Lauderdale area, I recommend you stopping by, it is free!
That’s great, Chris! You’ll be awesome!
First, thanks for the shout-out and kind words, Chris.
Sounds like a great event on tap, and such an incredibly important time where that kind of chat is so needed. Having your voice there will be an important part of this, and so thank you for stepping up and being a part of it. Looking forward to hearing how it goes!
