We hit $1000!!!!!
I have been amazed by the amount of support I have had so far with my fundraiser! We have just hit over $1000 in donations! Thank you to everyone that has donated to this amazing cause. We are now so close to my goal of $1500 raised. Make sure to keep spreading the word and ask whoever you can to also share and donate. Anything helps! Again thank you everyone so much for donating I still can't believe the amount of overwhelming support I have had! -TomI'm jumping from the sky for a cure!
I'm jumping out of a plane to support JDRF in their mission to find a cure for type 1 diabetes!
I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in May of 2021, my last year of high school. It can strike anyone at any time, and 8 Australians are diagnosed every day. You can literally just get randomly diagnosed anytime, anywhere, just like I did (I was legit in a PE class at school). Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy. I have had so many ups and downs with my diagnosis but I want to show my support by doing this fundraiser. JDRF is the largest funder of type 1 diabetes research in the world with a vision to create a world without type 1 diabetes. I don’t want anyone to have to deal with the mental and physical struggles of this horrible condition, however I want to promote that with some resilience and motivation, you don’t have to let type one diabetes control your life.
DONATE NOW to help change the lives of more than 130,000 Australians living with T1D. Thank you!

Hi Tom - we do not know each other but have friends of friends on common. I was diagnosed at 36 with T1D and not a day goes by when I don’t think of world hopefully finding a cure. If jumping out of the sky is your way to raise awareness, I’m I’m awe. I would be passed out on the way down. Best of wishes from a fellow T1D warrior.

Type 1 sucks! #t1dcantstopme
Hello Tom My late husband lived with T1D for 73 of his 85 years so I know well the daily journey you are on. He was optimistic that one day there would be a cure. Congratulations on taking on the challenge and best wishes for the future.
