McDonald’s LPGA Championship- diabetics “in the field”

My family is very fortunate in that we have the McDonald’s LPGA championship in our backyard every year during the first month of June. It is played at the wonderful Bulle Rock golf course in Havre de Grace, which by the way is ranked as one of the top 50 public courses in the US.
It is so cool to go out and walk next to the best women golfers in the world. The highlight of today was my girls chasing down Leta Lindley for her autograph- she won 2 weeks ago at the Corning Classic in NY.
What does this have to do with diabetes? Well, it just goes to prove that living with diabetes does not have to hold you back. It is treatable! There are four female golfers on tour that have publicly spoken about their diabetes.
So here is some inspiration for you… These ladies rock!
