Several members of my family and law firm attended yesterday's kick-off luncheon for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) Walk for the Cure. It's a cause that impacts my family personally, as well as several people who work at the law firm.

My grandson has Juvenile Diabetes (JD), and one of my partner's sons is also learning to live with JD. In addition, we have several staff members at the law firm who have diabetes.

The speeches at the luncheon were meaningful and inspiring, as diabetic children and their parents lent their experiences to the audience. My partner, Jason Lichtenstein, and his wife Julie are very active with the JDRF. Julie spoke about her journey as a parent with a young son who has juvenile diabetes, and her son's bravery in coping with JD. The Walk has become a day of celebration for their family and mine.

On Saturday, September 15, we're encouraging our staff to walk with us in Schenley Park or sponsor a walker to raise money to help find a cure for JD. Visit www.jdrf.org to get involved with a great cause.
