Removing Drama from Type 1 Diabetes for 58+ Years
How might you make managing a lifetime with T1 diabetes as simple as brushing teeth?
With more than 58+ years as a Type One diabetic (and still counting) --- no hospitalizations, no complications, no drama, and a little luck, I will share several priorities to help anyone with diabetes to live an enjoyable, active and healthy lifestyle, well into their senior years. Most importantly, you don't have to be "perfect" at these priorities, just be good! Trust me, they work and my life experience is proof positive!
