19Jan2010 Rufus, The Bear With Diabetes TM: Join us in the search for a cure for Diabetes
Ten percent of your membership to Huetrition Club will be donated to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. http://www.jdrf.org/ Who is Rufus? Rufus, the bear with diabetes, is a special friend for children with diabetes. Rufus is the creation of Carol Cramer, whose son Brian was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in November 1994 at the age of three. Rufus has patches on his arms, legs, tummy and bottom to help children learn about site rotation. You can even give Rufus a pretend injection. Rufus also has red patches on both sides of his paws so that a child can pretend to test his blood sugar. And, of course, Rufus always wears a Medic Alert bracelet. Rufus can offer a child with diabetes a symbol of comfort and security, and comes as either a boy bear or a girl bear.

19Jan2010 Cuties: Excellent Snack for Type 1 Kids!
California Cuties are two varieties of mandarins: Clementine mandarins and Murcott mandarins. I have found these are one of the best snacks for kids. They love the sweetness, size, and they are so portable! http://www.cutiescitrus.com/
