I went to one in central Illinois beginning in junior high all the way until is was 16 (which was the cutoff).  I fought with my dad because I didn't want to go the first year and didn't want to be away from my friends.  I was sad to tell my father that I had the best time of my life. I made so many friends from all over.  All of the same people went back each year so it was good to catch up with everyone we didn't see  the rest of the year.  I still keep in touch with some people I met there and it was like 10 years ago.  It was a great experience that I would reccomend to all youths.

Always a safe bet to go around the neighborhood and meet up with the other children. Its a good way to make friends too. Also many buisnesses around the area tend to get involved with community treating :)

YES. look through youth groups for thier programs. Jewish youth groups I know of are \n\nUSY and BBYO. USY has some GREAT oppertunities to go away, usually around the US to do mitzvah projects with other jew your age.

First of all contact your insurance company. They can be a valuable resource. Second, contact your local American Diabetes Association chapter, they can provide you with endocrinologists along with a vast wealth of information. Finally, visit www.childrenwithdiabetes.com there is some GREAT help available there.\n\nPlease feel free to email me with any other questions...I've been in your shoes. Hang in there, ok?

Your best web resource for information on diabetes would be the American Diabetes Association. www.diabetes.org\n\nIf you are looking for other sources, consider talking to a doctor or a CDE (Certified Diabetes Educator). \n\nThere are also a lot of great answerers on this site. So, if you ask a specific question, you can probably get some information here. \n\nGood luck and best wishes...\n\nGood luck!

I suggest your local churches (they have them) or a local community center. They usually have programs like that for teens. Try your local health unit too, they might have some ideas...GL;)

I'm not 13, but a very close family friend was 13 when he found out that he was diabetic. I know he had a really hard time when he first found out because he loved candy and cakes. You can still enjoy some sweets, but just in moderation. I have Type II diabetes, and I made a chocolate cake with whole wheat flour and used Splenda (Splenda also sells a brown sugar substitute now) and the cake turned out really good. I have found that with Splenda, even though it is supposed to measure the same as real sugar, I have to use a little bit more in recipes...about an extra 1/2 cup. Look for online support groups. I'm sure yahoo groups has something for you. Good luck, and remember to take care of yourself.

Hey!  We really like a site called SLS.  It will allow you to do a search & show you many ppl are in your immediate area, as well as different listings of clubs & events like Meet & Greets in your area.  You can join for free, and it really serves as a great way to find others you may be interested in.  Good luck, and happy swinging :)

I do, but I went last year and was really disappointed so i was not planning to attend this year. On the other hand I have two teens so things change daily.  What do you need?
