Title: Running interference
Description: Middle school football player Tim Johnston feels a lot better about managing his type I diabetes and the pressure of being his football team's starting cornerback after meeting Roger, another type I diabetic. The only problem is, Tim's teammates don't know he's friends with Roger, and Tim isn't sure he wants to tell them, since Roger isn't exactly the coolest kid at school.
