Type 1 Diabetes is a disease Elizabeth Profit has fought since she was diagnosed just before she turned 3 years old.
Profit, 15, is an accomplished junior tennis player who will compete this week at the Easter Bowl, a U.S. Tennis Association national championship.
Profit said the disease has had little impact on her as a tennis player, as she has built a successful junior career.
Profit, a nationally-ranked player, has been accepted into the U.S. Tennis Association's High Performance program, where she is coached by former WTA star Lori McNeil.
?I'm equal, and I have some handicaps, some advantages,? Profit said of her disease.
