Removing Drama from Type 1 Diabetes for 58+ Years
How might you make managing a lifetime with T1 diabetes as simple as brushing teeth?
With more than 58+ years as a Type One diabetic (and still counting) --- no hospitalizations, no complications, no drama, and a little luck, I will share several priorities to help anyone with diabetes to live an enjoyable, active and healthy lifestyle, well into their senior years. Most importantly, you don't have to be "perfect" at these priorities, just be good! Trust me, they work and my life experience is proof positive!

“DEAD DOCTORS DON’T LIE”, SEASON 1, Ep6, Pt2
This podcast is the second in a 3 part series, and reviews my earliest days as a Type One diabetic. It’s an episode that is relevant to all Type Ones and Twos, who may be struggling, frustrated, anxious, dissatisfied, or just plain disappointed in their progress managing themselves. Looking back, I felt that way many times in my earliest days as a Type One. I guess it was human nature to feel that way. But the most important personal lesson that I drew from that time was, you don’t need to be perfect managing yourself, just be good. That approach ensures you may experience a longer, rewarding, enjoyable life time, than otherwise. I recall my experiences being treated by my first “endocrinologist” back in 1969. I was not under his care for very long, as he was very demanding of me back then, and probably not as demanding of himself, in managing his personal health. He himself passed away at a young age. I learned “Dead Doctors Don’t Lie”. Listen in for more details about that experience.
