I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at age 12. The excellent care I received from Texas Children’s Hospital, and the experience of my family throughout my initial diagnosis, empowered me and my family to begin living safely with Type 1 diabetes. Now, at age 22, I safely manage my disease. The RaeLynn Diabetes Fund was created to offer support, empowerment, and a community, for all of those facing diabetes with me. MISSION STATEMENT Raising funds to support those whose lives are impacted by Type 1, Type 2, and juvenile diabetes. The RaeLynn Diabetes Fund is a component fund of The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.
