In this episode, special guests Bryan Rice (T1D for 41 years!) and his son Teaghan, who also has type 1, dive into their shared and unique experiences of growing up with Type 1 Diabetes.
They discuss the emotional and practical challenges of living with diabetes, the importance of support systems, and how much has diabetes technology changed in the last half-century - including Bryan's experience with an islet cell transplant!
