support groups for parents of children with diabetes?

I am looking for online support groups for parents of children (infants and toddlers) with diabetes. My son, who is 16 months old, was recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, and I am looking for as many resources as possible. I am particularly interested in feedback from parents whose children were diagnosed at a young age. I am also looking for coping strategies to deal with the inevitable anxiety, guilt,and frustration of dealing with a child with special needs. I would also welcome suggestions for online resources for building a healthy and diverse meal strategy.

How do I get sponsors to be the youngest runner to cross America and support the cause for diabetes type 1?

I am 14 and I am training to be able to run all the way across the continental US in hopes to set a record and at the same time be able to raise much needed money for the research and hope for a cure for type 1 diabetes, which I have and is on the rise, rapidly. I don’t know where to begin to get this cause started and actually make it worth something. I am hoping for huge contributions to this cause. How should I begin?
