Diabetes & You As An Alpha Gam...

I have been wondering about Alpha Gams and their personal experiences with Diabetes. A chapter sister and I were talking about how AGD's philanthropy dealing with Diabetes played a factor in our rushing AGD a few weeks after we joined. Both of us have family members coping with it. Rubyrose's great thread just brought this subject up back in my head so I wondered if anyone minds answering the following questions.
[list=1][*]Do you or does anyone who you know have Diabetes (specifically family members)?
[*]Did our philanthropy influence you to seek out AGD further and/or influnence your decision to join?
[*]Have you given money to JDF (Juvenile Diabetes Foundation) before or after you became involved with AGD?
[*]Have you participated in the Cure For Diabetes Walk or any other charity event for it?
[/list=1]

It just seems like a lot of us have close ties to Diabetes and it played some role (even if really minimal)in our joining AGD.
