Juicebox Podcast: Type 1 Diabetes

Bethany, mom of 4-year-old T1D Will, finds the nerve to be bold with insulin after a phone call with Scott. Scott gives her some basic steps to take to stop the spikes she sees in her son's blood sugar. After a short period of time, Bethany sees success by pre-bolusing and addressing high blood sugars sooner. She shares her son's initial T1D diagnosis story, her stress over his uncontrollable blood sugar, and her path to finding answers.

Jenna is an eighteen year old college student who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of thirteen. To say that Jenna has 'it' together is, well, the understatement of all understatements.
