NFL Draft and Diabetes

4/19/2012

Just over a week ago I saw an ad on facebook that was promoting a NFL Draft party to benefit diabetes.  I was very excited and quickly clicked on the link, it took me to vincewilfork75.com.  At that website I learned all about the event and how the fundraiser raises money for diabetes research.  I quickly clicked on the link and purchased a ticket.  I was so pumped to see a big time event for diabetes that I couldnt pass on the opportunity to be a part of it.

Today when I got the mail I saw an envelope with Vince Wilforks name on it and quickly opened the envelope.  In side was my ticket to the event, a picture of Vince Wilfor that was signed and a letter explaining the event in more detail.  After reading the letter and seeing the events and activities that are planned I beyond excited for next Thursday night!!!  My level of excitement went even higher when I saw the number of sponsors for the event.  One sponsor in particular caught my eye, I noticed the Novo Nordisk logo instantly.  Over the past year or so I have been working closley with an employee of Novo Nordisk on an idea to raise diabetes awarness.  Over the past year I have learned a lot about the company and I must say that I'm very happy to have a company like Novo Nordisk on the side of diabetes.  They go out of there way to inform all of their employees about diabetes.  Employees learn the history, dangers and what it is like to take insulin shots on a daily basis.  I have talked with one other employee of Novo Nordisk and have heard the same great things about the company.  I will make it a point to find a Novo Nordisk employee at the event and tell them how happy I am with the amount of effort they put forth in the battle to stop diabetes.

I encourage anyone that is in New England area to take a look at this event and if they can purchase a ticket.  I can gurantee that it will be a night that they won't soon forget.  Vince Wilfork is an amazing person and holds a special place in my heart for all of the work he does for diabetes.
