Using The Force To Fight Diabetes. 6 Year Old's T-Shirt Would Melt Even The Darkest Sith Lord's Heart.




Now, here's a product that could bring light, love and hope to the Dark Side.



Six year old Audrey Chau has an older sister, Natalie, who has Type 1 Diabetes. In hopes of one day finding a cure for her sister's condition, Audrey has drawn her favorite characters from Star Wars, with much love and care (and talent). The adorable, yet recognizable characters, have been turned into a t-shirt for adults, youths and toddlers to wear, with all the proceeds from the sales going to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.




Audrey and big sister Natalie:


Buy one - I did. The price is right ($12), the cause is just and the drawings are great.



Audrey graciously thanks you for your support and says, "May the force be with you!"
