Katie?s stepping out for diabetes

[Northerner]

Type 1 diabetes is a devastating autoimmune disease caused by the immune system mistakenly turning on itself. People with type 1 diabetes cannot survive without insulin that has to be injected up to six times a day or continuously infused through a pump, as well as check their blood sugar levels up to eight times every day just to stay alive.
The disease is not well understood and the only way that people with type 1 diabetes will live the long and healthy life they deserve is if more money is invested in research to find a cure.

That?s why Narromine?s Katie Young is strapping on the joggers to take part in Walk to Cure Diabetes in Dubbo next weekend.
