ReidGoodwin would like to take a moment to shine a light on a cause that is near and dear to our hearts. November is American Diabetes Month and today, November 14, 2020 is World Diabetes Day. Diabetes is a disease that affects more than 34 million Americans. Today in the United States, approximately 4,110 individuals will be diagnosed with diabetes and 356 will undergo an amputation.
The numbers associated with diabetes make a strong case for devoting resources to find a cure. For more information on what you can do to assess your risk and manage a diagnosis, please visit the American Diabetes Association at www.diabetes.org. You can also visit JDRF at www.jdrf.org to learn more about type 1 diabetes specifically and the leading role the organization plays to end type 1 diabetes through research and fundraising.
