Share T1D Realities – Advances in technology over the past few decades has made life with T1D less burdensome which means sometimes people don’t understand the impact T1D has on everyday life. The realities for people living with T1D are often much different than for those who don’t have the disease. Read and share the T1D realities on social media with your friends and followers.
