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.
Hands up who realllllllyyy doesn't love their retinopathy screening? Yep, it's the one where you get your pupils dilated and are forced to sit in a room and contemplate your illness for hours on end, before strutting out wearing sunglasses on what will inevitably be the darkest day of the year. The fun never stops with type 1 diabetes.
As you might have guessed, we've got an eye screening escapade this week. Jen's scared to articulate that her blood sugars seem to actually be ok for once... that is until she bolused for her lunch in a meeting that then got extended by half an hour. Oops.
