Summary
I have a lot of phone conversations with readers of my type 1 diabetes parenting blog, Arden's Day because often questions are easier to answer in person than they are by email. But now that I have a podcast I'm recording these very personal conversations whenever the other party is interested in doing so. When Jess Grim contacted me and wanted to talk about the difficulties that she was having with her daughter's school I quickly asked if she wanted to be on the Juicebox Podcast - huge thank you to Jess for coming on and speaking so openly!
