Type 1 John - 33 - Saluting the Mum and Dads

I’ve spent a month banging on about my own diabetes - everyday! So let’s hear from someone else for a change! Last week it was about partners. This week it’s all about the parents. How does it really feel to have a kid with type 1? I can’t even imagine the burden, frustration and the fears. So today we salute the mums and dads. I also take in the reaction to hearing my wife on the podcast last week, and some of the things it uncovered. And there’s more ‘Low Behaviour’ stories! And if you're new around here... This is just me trying to keep myself accountable. Saying it out loud - so I can't ignore it anymore. And hopefully making a few friends along the way too. If you've ever looked around and thought everyone else seems to have diabetes completely sorted, come and have a look at my mess. It's not perfect diabetes. But it is honest diabetes. If any of this sounds like you, hit subscribe and come along for the ride. Maybe we can remind each other that we're not nearly as alone, as we sometimes think. John The podcast is twice weekly now - Tuesdays and Thursdays. You can hear the start of this full reset - a 30 day diary podcast - here: https://pod.fo/e/44d8f5 Contact: www.type1john.com
