Diagnosed at 16. One year later. A whole lot to talk about. 🎙️💙
We’re kicking off November’s Diabetes Awareness Month with Holly’s daughter, Reid, for an honest look at being a teenager with type 1 diabetes.
The shock of diagnosis. The first-year learning curve. The alarms, the carbs, the sleepless nights—and the days you just want to be a teenager without doing blood sugar math. How big of a pain is diabetes, really? How many other kids are navigating it? And how do you keep it from taking over your whole world?
Holly weighs in from the parent side, because loving a teen with T1D comes with its own worries, learning curve, and middle-of-the-night check-ins. đź’™
Expect real talk, some laughs, and a peek at what Reid is working on to build awareness, connection, and support for other young people living with T1D. There’s so much more to come!
🎧 Take a listen. Let’s get November started with a conversation that matters.
