Centered (RE: Miss Idaho displays insulin pump): Sierra Sandison is a tremendous role model for young girls in addition to be a strong voice for Type 1 Diabetes. I've lost 2 high school friends to T1D (they were in their 30's....way too young) and my heart breaks to read the FB posts of a friend whose young son's life revolves around dealing with T1D. I think it's great that she has a platform to speak about this disease.

Question: Do you have a role model?
