Meet James: Joslin Diabetes Center x TJ Maxx

James was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age four, a diagnosis that came as a shock to his family—especially since his older brother, Luke, does not have diabetes. His family turned to Joslin in those early days to learn how to manage his care and build confidence in their medical support of James.

From an early age, James made it clear that diabetes would not define him. With the support of his family and care team at Joslin, he has continued to grow stronger in school, in sports, and in his faith. Now, James has been a patient for over 12 years, and today he is navigating new milestones, including driving and preparing for college.

From now through February 21st, you can make a gift at any TJ Maxx register, and 100% goes directly to Joslin to help advance research, improve technology for patients like James, and move us closer to a cure. Find a store near you today!
