Last week we announced that we had 4 copies of the book "Sugar Surfing - How to manage Type 1 Diabetes in a Modern World" to giveaway. Kevin McMahon, co-author of “Sugar Surfing” very kindly donated the 4 copies of the book to us. Kevin was one of our speakers at Thriveabetes 2015 in Maynooth. He is a diabetes dad, his daughter, Darby, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2001. The Thriveabetes team would like to extend their thanks to Kevin for this generous gift.

I would like to thank everyone who completed the survey to enter. The results were very interesting and we will publish them in the coming weeks. 

And the winners are:

• Teri Byrne
• Ramona Lasch
• Evelyn O'Leary
• Cliodhna Hyland

Congratulations to all 4 and I will be in touch in the next couple of days to get your mailing addresses and get your copies of Sugar Surfing out to you.

I would also like to mention that in the coming weeks we will be running a Thriveabetes Fundraiser Raffle with free Thriveabetes Tickets on offer to volunteer ticket sellers. If you are interested in this opportunity please email me at Grainne@thriveabetes.ie

Or if you would like to donate a prize to add to the two fab prizes we already have?
