Hello friends, and welcome to episode 670 of the Juicebox podcast.

On today's program, Leona is here to talk about her child's type 1 diabetes and Graves disease.

The Graves came first at an alarmingly young age. This is their story.

and she is our type one diabetic in the family. Cool. Leona now that you're talking more,
