Support Groups in Michigan
- The Brighton Go-Getters
Our group meets the first Wednesday of the month at 1pm. This is a group made up of parents of Type 1 kids who can talk and relate to our problems with this disease. We have been able to get carb counts on the lunch menus, and then published on the school web sites. We have also pressured the school into letting the kids be more independent! Please contact me at the above email address if you need help here in Livingston County. Just make sure you say it's about "The Brighton Go-Getters" diabetic group. Contact Denise Pentescu via email at
npentescu AT ismi.net
for location.
