12YO CdA Diabetic Lobbied Guv

Carson Magee, 12, at podium, from Coeur d’Alene, had lobbied Gov. Butch Otter and first lady Lori Otter last year to proclaim a Diabetes Awareness Day. They picked Feb. 9, when the Legislature was in session. Carson, who was diagnosed in 2010, says he hopes a lot of senators and representatives will be more informed about the disease. First lady Lori Otter read the proclamation and Miss Idaho Sierra Sandison also spoke about her own diabetes. Back story from last Aug. 15 here. (AP/Statesman photo: Katherine Jones)
