Andrew self advocated in order to receive funding for an insulin pump and he moved to a Keto diet and has recently moved to a low-fat high carb diet with the help of the book Mastering Diabetes. I'm aware in the community that discussion about how someone chooses to manage their diabetes with what they eat can at times be divisive however I believe that it's down to the individual to choose what works for them and I'm all for conversations of people sharing their own personal experiences. I don't believe that one person should tell another person the diet they are choosing to follow is wrong because it's an individual decision.

In this episode, I speak to Kalex, Kylene and Lauren. All three are black and living with type 1 diabetes. The backdrop to this episode is where we find ourselves in the world at the time of recording. This episode was recorded towards the end of June 2020. George Floyd's death in May 2020 shocked the world and highlighted the problems back people face with systematic and institutional racism in all areas of society. This includes the education system to the workplace and in healthcare environments. Growing up I always wondered if my experiences as a black person living with type 1 diabetes was just limited to me but I never spoke to others in my position. I'm not 24 years into my type 1 journey and a member of the diabetes community which has allowed me to have this conversation. This episode isn't just about me fulfilling a childhood dream this episode is so much more. This episode is four black people living with type 1 diabetes and sharing our experiences. There are both shared and unique experiences amongst the four of us. All my guests were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as adults which came with its own challenges which we discuss in our chat. We also talk about health discussions within the black culture and experiences within the health care system as a black person. Our conversation then leads to the diabetes community where we discuss diversity within the diabetes community and we talk about what it is like for us as black people in today's society. I appreciate Kalex, Kylene and Lauren sharing their experiences. Where you can find my guests on social media: Kalex on Instagram hereKylene on Instagram here and on Twitter hereLauren on Instagram hereIf you would like to ask a question or be a guest on the show then you can email Daniel at talkingtype1podcast@gmail.com.

In this episode I speak to Brandon Mouw. Brandon was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 3 and after living with type 1 diabetes for over 30 years became a brittle diabetic. Brittle diabetes is a rare form of insulin-dependent diabetes and is marked by frequent and severe episodes of hypoglycemia and/or hyperglycemia (DKA). This instability of blood sugar levels often leads to hospitalization and necessitates frequent self-monitoring of blood glucose, the use of an insulin pump and a continuous glucose monitoring device (CGM). In rare cases, a pancreas transplant may be necessary. (Taken from BeyondType1.org). Brandon was told that if he did not have a pancreas only transplant he has less than two years to live. Brandon is based in the USA and this specific transplant operation isn't covered by insurance so he needed to raise $250,000 in three months for this life-saving operation. At this point he had already undergone multiple surgeries for relating to kidney stones and only has one kidney. Brandon and I talk about: his life with type 1 and brittle diabetes including managing workhis transplantation journeyhow his life is has changed after receiving his pancreas transplant how he managed to raise the $250,000 which involved the kindness of strangers how he's using his experience to help othersTransplantation is a journey that few go on and this was the first time I've sat down and had a conversation with a fellow transplant recipient. Brandon's journey shows that nothing is impossible. You can find Brandon on Instagram, Twitter and WebsitePodcast Highlights: 2:30 - life living with type 1 diabetes and how he was diagnosed with brittle diabetes17:00 - the transplant referral process and finding out he needed to raise $250,000 to have a transplant, How he raised $250,000 for his transplant in 3 months.30:44 - we talk about transplant experiences and when Brandon received 'the call' and the lead up to the operation and beyond. 40:16 - Brandon's road to recovery including overcoming organ rejection and post-transplant challenges including mental and emotional aspects.46:38 - Brandon's attitude and perspective towards his own health to get him to where he is today and how he is using his story/journey to inspire othersUseful LinksAffordable Care Act (ACA) - HealthCare.gov GlossaryWhat is Brittle Diabetes?If you would like to ask a question or be a guest on the show then you can email Daniel at talkingtype1podcast@gmail.com.
