This episode opens a discussion about how different my 56+ years as a Type One diabetic have been.  It reviews some basic facts about the consequences of T1D management, even when not "reasonably" managed. Perfect control is not necessary, nor easily achievable.   My story begins to make the case that "reasonable" control & success of T1D can yield remarkable physical health in retirement.   As I point out in later podcasts and upcoming book, "don't let 'perfect' control of your diabetes, come at the expense of 'reasonable' control".

This opening episode introduces my life as a Type 1, insulin-dependent, diabetic (T1D) after 55+ years of experience.   At the age of 71, I've been lucky to have avoided all the common reasons for hospitalizations, as well as the serious complications of diabetes, that T1Ds face when they have not been as well managed as I've been.  To the contrary, while I am very healthy and active now, my experience has not been "perfect".   Along the way, I've had lapses, learned some valuable lessons, and even developed some personal rules, for living a rewarding life with T1D.  

Stop by, listen in.  I'd love your feedback after finishing.  Send me any feedback you have at --- www.fanlist.com/thejuice.    

Cheerfully,
Brian

Have a great day!
