hondamom Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 Mrs. Perren was the school nurse at Herschel Jones when my son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. She was so caring and helped our family to adjust to the diagnosis. Jesse always talks about how Mrs. Perren treated him like a grandchild. He is now 21 years old and still speaks fondly of her.
