Episode 49 - The Diaries: Can we go to the insulin factory?

Jazz hands at the ready, we’re feeling a bit showbiz this week…
After a little dancing reminisce, we finally get to the real topic - type 1 diabetes. Jen’s had a shocker with her blood sugars and after going round the houses with the possible culprit, it all becomes very clear. Oops.

Ami’s in the mood for some science (read: not scientific at all) this week as she tries to understand a bit more about the magical properties of insulin. She is not, I repeat NOT a medical professional, despite ticking a box on a webpage to say otherwise…

Welcome to Type 1 on 1: The Diaries! Writer and broadcaster Jen Grieves and producer Ami Bennett are good friends - who both happen to live with type 1 diabetes. For this special spin-off series of Type 1 on 1, nana diabetic Jen (25 years) and baby diabetic Ami (3 years) chat through the frustrating, funny and challenging experiences they’ve faced each week thanks to this ridiculous condition. All in the hope that their stories might help you too.
