$1 Million Gift for Type 1 Diabetes Research

Here’s some great news to start your day. The “Joslin Diabetes Center today announced it has received a $1 million gift from the Thomas Beatson Jr. Foundation to support Type 1 diabetes research.”

Doesn’t that just bring a smile to your face? Mr. Beatson has had Type 1 diabetes for over 50 years. Wouldn’t it be great if his donation was just the incentive to put research over the mark in reaching a cure?

This is fabulous news, of course, but you know that every little bit truly adds up. So even if you’ve got $10 here and there, and we all have $10, it can add up to a lot.

Still, thank you Mr. Beatson!
