Guest guest Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Having trouble viewing this email? Click here " You nourish your soul by fulfilling your destiny. " - Rabbi Harold Kushner Greetings! By the age of 20, professional ballerina Zippora Karz had already fulfilled her life's dream. Having left home at the age of 15 to pursue her career on the stage, Karz had become a rising star with the New York City Ballet, winning accolades as the iconic Sugar Plum Fairy in Tchaikovsky's classic, The Nutcracker. A year later, however, Karz nearly lost it all when she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. Exhausted, thirsty and dizzy, she knew that balancing ballet and her blood sugar would be a difficult struggle. During this LECTURE-BY-PHONE, Zippora will share how she learned to value her body and work with it, rather than rage at its limitations. She will discuss the mental and physical anguish caused by her illness, and ways she overcame the obstacles to enjoy a full and critically-acclaimed career on stage. This event is intended to inspire anyone living with diabetes or any chronic illness.
