NORMAL KID FIGHTING THE FIGHT
Farmington kid raises awareness of juvenile diabetes
Beau Lovell probably doesn't think of himself as a hero. The 11-year-old sixth
grader at Randall G. Lynch Middle School in Farmington is humble when he talks
about raising money for the JDRF and raising awareness of juvenile diabetes,
its causes and the search for a cure. The JDRF, formerly known as the Juvenile
Diabetes Research Foundation, is a cause close to Beau's heart. He's got skin in
the game. Beau, who calls himself "just a regular kid," was diagnosed with Type 1
Diabetes several years ago.
"I got diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes three years ago," he told me. "It meant a
lot to me. So, we started raising money and awareness."
