Stacey’s son, Benny, was diagnosed with T1D the first weekend of December 2006. It was one month before he turned two. His big sister, Lea, had just turned 5. This week, Stacey, her husband, Slade, Lea, and Benny all share their stories about how their family’s life was changed and about how they’ve all managed over the last ten years.

This episode also kicks off a contest with Sierra Sandison’s Sugar Linings Swag company! We’re partnering to give away four shirts for the holidays. Please go to https://www.facebook.com/diabetesconnections/ for all the information and enter!
