On July 6, 2013, My friend who is a huge Bret Michaels fan found out the he was having a concert at a festival in Arlington Heights, Illinois and insisted that we go. So we got a babysitter for our children and off to the concert. My daughter Alyssa was upset that she was not going since she is also a big fan of Bret Michaels. She watched him on celebrity apprentice. She was amazed on his commitment to raising…
Dear Bret and The Life Rocks Foundation, Thanks so much for sponsoring my son Kenden for diabetes camp again this year, he attended camp UTADA here in Utah. He was somewhat nervous about going again, but when we picked him up he was all smiles. All the other children that he met there all hugged him goodbye. I have never met such amazing loving children. Once again he has met some friends for life. We got to listen to all…
Bret, I cannot thank you enough. There aren’t enough words to describe the gratitude we feel toward you for sending our daughter to diabetes camp. In the month before camp, Lauren (9 y o) was in what I call a “dark place about her having diabetes”. Many tears were shred about her denial or rejection of T1. She was diagnosed at 3 1/2 years old. She is in a school with no other T1’s . 360 days a year she stands out. The 5…

I also volunteer as a Registered Dietitian for the week…

I am 42 years old and have been an RN for 21 years. Even longer than that, I have been an IDDM person for 32 years and on an insulin pump since 1991. I have a laundry list of other health issues, but my miracle and my faith to hold on is in my daughter, Shelby. My brother got that opportunity to meet Bret when they went on his tour bus. I use to volunteer for the ADA and was…
