Hello friends, and welcome to Episode 806 of the Juice Box Podcast.

Today I'll be speaking with Blue, and she has had Type 1 diabetes for a very long time.

Despite the title of this episode, there's nothing sad about it.

I just couldn't resist using Blue's name along with Christmas, this close to Christmas.

Today we'll hear Blue's story, talk about how our life with diabetes is going now,

and we'll get into a few things from a number of years ago.

Just the first couple of minutes, the audio is wonky, but I left it in because it,

anyway, we get it fixed, and I wanted you to have context for what gets set afterwards.

who has Type 1, or is the caregiver of Type 1, oh boy, I'm a hot mess here. Listen,

just go take the freaking survey. t1dxchange.org forward slash Juice Box. There's plenty of good

reasons why you shouldn't. Apparently I can't say any of them right now.
