Today the rag tag team of diabetics and a sound guy are talking about recent legislative maneuvers by politicians to make it look like they are concerned about the cost of insulin and the "Insulin for All" (#Insulin4All) movement. We also talk about a certain politician who thinks that diabetics should just lose weight and then they wouldn't need insulin and the price wouldn't go up.
Tune in and learn the sneaky ways that politicians are pulling the rug over our heads and then smiling and waving for the photo-op.

It is never too early to start thinking about summer camp. Tim and Tisha have a lot of memories about their time at diabetes camp and want you to hear all about it.

Our super heroes tackle the labyrinth of making sure that your student gets the education they deserve while also allowing them to manage their diabetes within the hallowed halls of academia. For a long time students with diabetes were excluded from participating in many activities for fear, from the administration and educators, that their blood sugar will drop. Phys ed class and field trips were the main exclusions. Listen in and learn the rights your student has NOW that will allow them to be active participants in their educational journey and still be able to manage their diabetes without worry from the administration.

This week our superheroes, formerly known as, The Dead Pancreas Society, and hereafter to be known as, The Dead Pancreas League, and their faithful consort talk about one of the most feared complications in the Diabetesverse - retinopathy. It can be avoided or treated, but as denizens of the Diabetesverse it falls on our shoulders to make and keep our annual dilated retinal/fundal exam to see, no pun intended, if the evil Thanopancrea has started to damage our precious vision. Don't be fooled by thinking you have excellent vision so you couldn't have retinopathy. Symptoms of retinopathy often do not present until the damage has already been done and you immediately go from prevention to treatment to halt any further damage and a hope that your vision may be restored.
Come along for an insightful and entertaining conversation about diabetic eye disease.
