Type 1 Diabetes

Has a loved one you care about been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes or have you been diagnosed with T1D? Living in a whirlwind of giving needles and figuring out insulin pumps, CGM systems, counting carbs, monitoring blood glucose levels and irregular sleep patterns from worry? Type 1 Diabetes is an invisible illness which is misunderstood and very much life threatening.

Jennifer Grass – Clinical Counsellor

Having access to emotional support is of value and so is speaking with someone who understands the nuances of T1D. I’ve personally worn insulin pumps filled with saline to try to have an enhanced understanding. I’ve also conducted research on the psychological and emotional impact of a diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes on children, teens and their families. If you’re looking for support with T1D, I can help with this.
