Islets of Hope's Mission Statement Islets of Hope (IOH) was founded in late September 2005 but in only a few short months IOH was already helping others. See "What have we done for you lately?" for donating over $1,000 to IPump.org, Inc. And IOH's own "Miracle Four" (see sidebar) raised another $1,000 for the JDRF in a Not a bad start. But not nearly enough. Please see how you can help us continue our efforts to help others in need through patient education, donating funds to help purchase supplies and insulin pumps, as well as to other nonprofit diabetes organizations. And If you cannot afford to make a donation, we'd still love to have you on board as a volunteer.
Website dedication This website is dedicated with love and admiration to my amazing children Samuel (16), Rachel (11), Jonathan (10), and Elizabeth (7) . You bring joy and purpose into my life each day along with laundry, homework, and boo-boo knees. And to my mother, Mary Elizabeth, a tender-hearted woman with more courage than anyone else I know. Also, to Sophia, my soul sister, for always being there and loving me even when I am a pain in the .... (which is often). To my father, David, who encouraged me to write, color on walls, and dance under the moonlight barefoot. To Dr. S. Mark Tanen and Dr. Kathleen Link, who, as far as I am concerned, set the standard for what an endocrinologist should be. To Lisa, the first women I ever met who also has PCOS and has remained a dear and loyal friend ever since. And last, but certainly not least, to Jeffrey, my best friend forever and a wonderful, loving father to Elizabeth. Website dedication update: During the summer of 2006 I lost both Sophia, my second mother, and my own mother to cancer. I miss you both, every day. |
