À propos de cet audio
On this episode, we head to the Midwest and visit Marcus in Cincinnati. Marcus was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of 15. This year marks Marcus' 25th year with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D).
His diagnosis was a true traumatic experience for a young, fit athlete, and for the first few days after diagnosis, he did fall into a state of slumber depression. This was until his dad tapped him on his shoulder and said, "Just listen."
25 years ago, Marcus' diagnosis was not what we see and know it to be today. He started with NPH and Regular insulin. There was no wiggle room back then. His parents were his greatest advocates during those early years.
He remembers making sure every time he went out of the house to go through his checklist of everything needed. Marcus owned his diabetes from day 1. A lot of this is because of his anger with this diagnosis.
25 years ago his mom was his CGM. She made sure that she understood what it looked like when his blood sugar would fluctuate.
Marcus and his wife were on the Netflix series "I Do," which aired in 2020, where he and his wife were given a second chance at their dream wedding.
