What happens when you’ve lived with type 1 diabetes for 30… 40… even 50 years?

So much of the conversation around T1D focuses on diagnosis, childhood, and new technology. But there’s a growing group of people who’ve been managing this for decades and they’re still looking for connection, support, and understanding.

On the podcast this week, you'll hear from Kelly Dawes, the founder of Grownup T1Ds. Diagnosed in 1981, Kelly has seen every era of diabetes care—from no blood sugar meters to today’s advanced tech. Now she’s helping build GrownUp T1Ds, a fast-growing community focused on midlife and older adults living with type 1.
