Summary
In episode #829, "Chinese Hamster Ovaries", we spoke with Cassandra who bravely shared her story of living with type 1 diabetes and a host of other autoimmune issues. Her experience was truly inspiring, and provided insight into the challenges many individuals with diabetes face. Cassandra's willingness to share her journey gave hope to those living with autoimmune disorders, as she showed us how to stay positive in spite of the difficulty of managing diabetes and other conditions. Her courage and strength were both evident in her story, and it serves as a reminder that even when faced with the toughest of life's challenges - like diabetes - it is possible to find joy and live a full life.
