I was invited to hear about research on type 1 diabetes (and type 2 diabetes) this weekend.
As much as half of all cases, t1, are diagnosed in adulthood, and there is a need to understand the factors that contribute to the development of type 1 diabetes in adults. The lower heritability in adults suggests that environmental factors play a greater role in the development of the disease in adults than in children. They also highlighted the need for further research to identify environmental factors that contribute to type 1 diabetes in adults.
And, of course, lots of important information on how to make transplanted beta cells survive 💙
”You are your own lifebuoy” 😉 This is very true after the air conditioner stopped working. Glad that my buddy (aka #Dexcomg7) didn’t sail off 🤍💙
I have had an incredible day! Not fun having to deal with all this, life, with diabetes. It is what it is 💕 But it has definitely been worth it! 🥂🫶🏻💙

Someone told me that Diabetes is not a barrier but a different path that brings lessons on strength, resilience, and the significance of self care 💕
Over the years, with many lows and highs - I’ve learned to not expecting everything to be perfect all the time.
