I spoke with Ginger Vieira, T1D author and YouTuber, about her experience with alert fatigue and how you can best manage your devices to help keep that from happening. Ginger talks about what triggered her initial problems regarding alerts, going off of a CGM and back to finger sticks, and how she now finds a balance to make diabetes tech work for her without the added stress.

I spoke with Chris Lally, RN, Certified Diabetes Educator, and member of the medical staff at ADA Camp Freedom, about the behind the scenes work that goes into running camp smoothly. We talk about how they manage all of the camper devices, what led her to be a part of camp in the first place, and what kids and parents can expect who are planning to attend.

I spoke with parents about sending their T1D nine year old daughter to diabetes summer camp. We spoke about how they found the camp, how it felt to be cut off from her glucose levels, and how their daughter's independence grew. I also got to ask their daughter about her experience.
