Our son was diagnosed with type 1 a year ago. Our family went to their Fall family camp just a few weeks afterwards and it was enormously helpful in so many ways: practical information, medical answers from volunteer doctors, meeting new friends and forming a network of support, and just sheer inspiration from stories of people who are living healthy lives by working hard. This summer our 9 year old attended Camp Kudzu. It was an amazing experience for him to be a regular kid and not the only one in the room having to monitor carbs & take shots & repeatedly check his blood glucose. These kids never get a break from diabetes, but at the camp they get a break from being the "different" kids.
