Stories From Our Community


KEYOSHI CARR

“We are all in this together. To be able to go to the Walk and see that we are a
community makes all the difference to my family,” Carmen Carr, Keyoshi Carr’s
mother.

Keyoshi’s family changed forever when her older sibling was diagnosed with T1D.
They quickly became active members of the JDRF community, doing school
fundraisers, T1D education workshops and starting a JDRF One Walk team.

Six years later, the unimaginable happened again. Keyoshi was diagnosed with
T1D. She had been a participant in TrialNet, a JDRF-funded program that offers
risk screening for relatives of people with T1D. She had tested positive for
antibodies, so her parents we’re watching for the symptoms. They credit TrialNet
with potentially saving her life.




DAN HAMILTON

When Dan Hamilton was diagnosed with T1D in 1972, the doctor told him he
wouldn’t live past 50. Fast forward 45 years, and Dan is strong and healthy at
59. He credits his health to the advancements in treatment and care over the
years. He has been an early adopter of every technology that has come along, and
exercises regularly as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Dan has found he has had to be a strong advocate for himself with healthcare
providers. He had made sure to work with clinics and professionals that
specialize in T1D and keep up with the latest technology and treatment options.
He enjoys mentoring others with T1D and helping them discover a path to staying
strong and minimizing complications.




MADDY ARNSTEIN

Maddy Arnstein has lived with T1D for over 50 years. She became involved with
JDRF when she saw the dramatic difference technologies like the insulin pump
could have on her life. Maddy was quickly drawn to advocacy—initially to help
secure continued renewal of funding for the Special Diabetes Program (SDP). But
once she started using a continuous glucose monitor, she dedicated herself to
fighting for Medicare coverage.

In 2017, Maddy took part in JDRF Government Day, meeting with her members of
Congress. She offered a unique perspective, as she’s seen first-hand how far
research has come over the years.

“Because I’m very action-oriented, I can’t tolerate just sitting around and
discussing something with no results,” Maddy says. “Through JDRF I can actually
help make things better for the next generation.”




WILL STEVENS

When Will Stevens complained of aches and pains, the doctor advised his mother,
Cassie, to give him a baked potato before basketball practice and to make sure
he had plenty of Gatorade to drink. Will’s health went from bad to worse. He
lost weight and was tired all the time.

When they went to the hospital, Will was diagnosed with T1D. The family spent
four days at the hospital learning a “new normal” and trying not to feel
overwhelmed.

Soon after, the Stevens started participating in JDRF events and became part of
the JDRF community, something they describe as a “game changer.”




ARIANA SHAKIBINIA

Ariana Shakibinia decided to study public health in large part because she lives
with T1D. She had always been interested in public policy, but she says living
with this disease has made her more vested in the healthcare conversation. “ I
am living with what is essentially a pre-existing condition. I’m fortunate
enough to have good health insurance, but it makes the potential financial
burden of T1D management much more visible and relatable.”

The JDRF community has enabled Ariana to connect with people across the country
she wouldn’t normally meet. She finds it incredible how JDRF advocacy has
mobilized a small group of people to do big things—like securing bipartisan
support for the Special Diabetes Program, which provides $150 million annually
to T1D research.




TYLER NEWBOLD

“I own the fact that I have T1D, and am grateful about some of the things I’ve
learned and the people I’ve met throughout my experience,” says Tyler Newbold.

Tyler played college basketball at Utah State from 2007-2011, and had the
opportunity to play in three NCAA tournaments. His coaches and trainers always
had Gatorade or candy on hand in case his blood glucose dropped during a game.
Tyler tested his blood glucose right before training, and during halftime
breaks. He says working out and playing basketball has helped him to better
control his T1D.

Tyler got involved with JDRF One Walk when he was in college; as a basketball
player, he was asked to be the celebrity speaker. “It was an awesome and
humbling experience to help younger children understand that they can still
achieve their dreams.”
