TeamBretMichaels.com Story: Family Thanks Bret For Sending Hannah To Diabetes Summer Camp

Our daughter Hannah was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes just after her 6th birthday 6-19-08. There have been many ups and downs in the last 5 1/2 yrs. Hannah has been a trooper. She did not like the routine of 5 or more shots per day and wanted to be on the insulin pump. Two weeks before her 7th birthday, she was put on it.

One year ago, on our way home from work on a Saturday night, my wife and I were struck head-on, by an oncoming car at speeds in excess of 60 mph both ways.
