We do eventually get to some actual type 1 diabetes content this week, promise. It’s been a week for Jen and Ami, who are both on the move! Hypos abound for Ami as she packs up her flat to move house, while Jen has crossed into a new country with her case of diabetes stuff in tow.

The heatwave in London hasn’t helped matters, nor did Ami’s upsetting encounter with a ‘you don’t look disabled’ person on a bus. Jen’s had better luck with the humans of this world, meeting an absolute angel who put a fridge in her hotel room just to store her insulin. *heart explodes*

There’s also a bit of chat about what a wild, wild condition this really is. But we knew that already, didn’t we?

Thanks so much for listening and supporting us and our rambles, this community is the best!

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.
