After nearly two years of dedicating lots of hours as an administrator on TuDiabetes, we now get to the point of saying THANKS and goodbye (as an admin) to our dear Kristin. She is focusing her energy on big things coming her way in the next few months.
We wish Kristin the BIGGEST success and happiness possible and thank her for the love she has shared with the community and her dedication to it since mid-2008. You will be missed (as an admin), Kristin. We look forward to continuing to see you around as a member of the TuDiabetes family, of course! 
Joining the Admin team (he has been diligently doing the work since late March) is Bradford, who has kindly accepted to help our as an admin along with Scott, Teena, Lorraine and MelissaBL (who continues to help out as her baby continues to grow!)
Kristin, you will be missed on the team! Best of luck to you and all of yours!!
Thanks so much Kristen for all your hard work, Good advice and energy as an Administrator. Hope to see you around and the Best wished to you in your Future.
Welcome Bradford. Wonderful to see you on board. I hope that the Team treats you…kindly. Especially Cranky. (Just Kidding, Cranky. You Rock!!) 
nah, Bradford is fresh meat… /wink
LOL!!
Good luck Kristin.
I’m waiting for you to break the 2000 ‘posts’ level.
No, just kidding.
Finishing off your PhD aren’t you? Go for it.
THANKS Kristen for your dedication !!..you always sent me ( and my brother Henry ) on the right paths , if we needed help with posting and other TuD stuff etc. …how curious Manny is making me with his line " She is focusing her energy on big things coming her way in the next few months." ??? …see you here next as a happy Tu member …Hugs…
Welcome Mr. Bradford …I promise to become your Friend …be mine too 
How lucky we are to have known someone who was so hard to say goodbye to and will be truly missed…
I wish you the best Kristin =)
Yes, I need to finish my PhD as soon as possible! So I am trying to focus all my energy there for now! I’ll post a picture when I have finally defended!!!
Thank you all for your kind comments!
It has truly been a wonderful experience to be an Admin in this community and to work with such an extraordinary team. You will still see me around here, just not quite as frequently as I focus my energy on finishing my PhD.
Thanks Bradford, Lorraine, MelissaBL, Scott, Teena, and many other volunteers for carrying on in all the ‘behind the scenes’ work! And, of course, to Andre and Manny, as well!! I will miss waking up to my inbox FULL from all of your emails!
Kristen …I am on your side !! All the best
Oops! I missed my 2000 ‘post’ anniversary. This is my 2050th post in this community!
hooray !
Not FULL, FULL… just full. 
Thanks, Kristin, you are awesome!
no, FULL is the correct term…
/wink
Thanks to Kristin and all the new and current admins. You have done and you are doing an important job for this community. We would be flooded with spam, trolls and other trivia without your dedication. Numerous advises have been given and Kristin has always been there for all of us - often as the first responder. I wish you the best for your PhD, Kristin.
Kristin - you have impacted so many people in a positive way. I remember you as one of the first people to reach out to me with a genuine, personal welcome and you have always had sincere contributions and messages to Caleb and me. Thank you so much for everything. It has always been evident that your heart is open and warm. There is no question that you have helped make TuD the great community that it is today (and will of course continue to do so, just not in the admin capacity, right?)
Lo
Thanks Kristin for your work in this community. I ALWAYS look forward to seeing what you have to say in a discussion!! It is always kind, thoughtful, insightful and earnest. I wish you the best (and a less FULL inbox) as you focus your energy on finishing your PhD.
Bradford, maybe you can set your profile to “public” now that you are part of the admin team?
And, Kristin, thanks for being an awesome admin person!
