We need your Help to Finish our Documentary, ‘The Human TRial’
01.14.20
It's been 15 years since my son, Tristan, was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes—overnight our lives changed. My son’s existence has become a scary rollercoaster of damaging blood sugar highs and lows.
Since then, I’ve been committed to raising awareness and funds for a cure. I'm the Executive Producer of “The Human Trial”, a feature-length documentary about the search for a cure for type 1 diabetes.
After 5 years of filming, our documentary is nearly done! Through the patients we profile, we hope to raise the public profile of this widely misunderstood disease and help lead the nation to new support, money and research towards a cure.
Since we're an independent film — and following science in real-time is costly — we continue to raise funds to complete the documentary.
I'm raising $5,000 for graphics that will help to illustrate this invisible condition. Any amount you can donate is greatly appreciated: at contribute. Your tax-deductible contribution will help us finish the film this year!
Thank you. I am so grateful for your support.

“Take Time to Smell the Roses” and make them shine in your garden just in time for Spring! At Roger’s Gardens on Saturday, January 18 at 9 a.m. rose experts, Laura and Lynn, will demonstrate how, where and when to prune your roses. They will explain how to manage the canes, maximize the blooms and reduce disease. The session will begin with reviewing some basic “tips” in their Amphitheater, and then they will move to their Rose Garden with a hands-on experience.
RSVP at 949.640.5800.
Open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Roger’s Gardens is at 2301 San Joaquin Hills Rd. in Corona del Mar.
