Take Heart!

Posted by Bridget McNulty - December 30th, 2009

Remember our Take Heart Campaign?

It’s part of our Round-the-World Travelling with Diabetes journey, and essentially what it is is a wee bit of inspiration for all of us… Obviously my chronic condition is diabetes, because that’s what we’ve had to live with, but what we want to say is that no matter what your condition -  whether it’s something emotional or mental or physical – no matter what’s holding you back, you can take heart in the fact that it is possible to follow your dreams.

As an illustration of this, we’ve had a handmade heart made in every country we’ve visited. The end of Vietnam was such a whirlwind that I didn’t have a chance to post our Take Heart Vietnam video, but here it is now:

And then here’s the one from Indonesia:

Which do you prefer? (I love them both – you know how I feel about hearts!!)

Take Heart…

Posted by Bridget McNulty - October 31st, 2009

… is really the message that we want to send with this journey.

That no matter what your chronic condition, you can take heart in knowing that it is possible to follow your dreams, just like I’m doing with my diabetes and our travels.

Part of our Take Heart Campaign is finding handmade hearts in each of the countries we visit, which we’ll auction off to raise funds for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, who are searching for a cure for diabetes.

Here’s our Cambodian heart, isn’t it lovely?
