Melissa has worn Medtronic’s Guardian sensor for many years, so she was excited to get connected to Medtronic’s new disposable sensor, Instinct. 💙

Instinct is built on Abbott’s Libre 3 sensor technology and designed to work with the Medtronic pump—giving Medtronic users another CGM option with 15-day wear.

This means only two sensor changes a month—and we love anything that makes life with diabetes a little easier.

We’re celebrating TEN years with our favorite prankster, Anden Dillon! (But no comment on how many times he’s scared Meghan and Nicola over the years… 😂)

Anden always comes in with a smile and a Diet Coke… but sometimes it’s a rubber snake or a plastic tarantula.

Insulin may be the best medicine for managing Type 1, but laughter is a close second.

Thank you for making us laugh (and shriek) for the last decade, Anden! 💙

This is something more people need to know:
Glucagon will not treat alcohol-induced hypoglycemia.

When alcohol is being processed, your liver may not be able to release the glucose your body needs. ⚠️

26 years of Type 1 and still doing hard things. 💙

For 13 years, Julie has been part of the DCC family—and for her diaversary, she took on HYROX like an absolute champ. HYROX is a high-intensity fitness competition that pairs running with brutal functional workouts, making it one of the toughest tests of strength and endurance out there.

Doing hard things on purpose has a way of reminding you that diabetes is not the only hard thing you can do.

Happy diaversary, Julie. Your strength shows. 💙

Do you celebrate your diaversary? If so, how?

Anniversary month = all the throwback feels 💙
This one still makes us smile. The Fogals had custom Fogal 1 and Fogal 2 shirts made for their appointment, and they even made Dash his own shirt with his picture and Ashlea’s on it too.
Years later, we still get to care for them—and that means everything.

Mrs. Bettie Andrews is 82 years young and absolutely glowing 💙

Typically, we wouldn’t mention a lady’s age—but when someone looks this amazing, we’re definitely listening.

Her advice for staying healthy?
✨ Walk often
✨ Eat right
✨ Love life
✨ Enjoy the little things
✨ Take as few medicines as possible

And with an A1C of 5.5—just below the prediabetes range 🙌—that’s pretty impressive.

She also shared that she loves coming to DCC because Ashlea was one of “her students” from Marion High School. That sweet hometown connection makes this Sweet Success even sweeter 💙

Mrs. Bettie has spent many years caring for others—show her some love and drop a 💙 in the comments.
