• Do you know that diabetes is a leading cause of death in the United States?
• Do you know that blindness changes the lives of as many as 24,000 people with diabetes each year?
• Do you know that cardiovascular disease is two to four times more common in people with diabetes?
• Do you know that more than one third of all new dialysis patients have diabetes-caused kidney failure?

I, along with the 16 million other Americans who have this disease, know only too well. Help us find a cure. Join the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International/The Diabetes Research Foundation. JDF gives more money directly to diabetes research than any other private health agency in the world.
