Episode 5
A sudden diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes in adulthood. Join Jaimee as she chats with our guest, Martine, who is 5-6 weeks into her diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes at age 43. With a BGL over 28mmol/L, she received a phone call from her GP to immediately attend the Emergency Department after getting some bloods done two days earlier. Hear how her diagnosis & education went. This is truly 'Diabetes in the Raw'. An unplanned, opportunistic episode. Martine is someone who will go on to make a HUGE difference in the lives of others living with diabetes, like she already does in her current field of work (disability). This is another one of our 'Share Your Story' episodes in the hope of helping others!
