Diabetes Connections With Stacey Simms | Type 1 Diabetes |

Join the New Diabetes Connections Facebook Group Happy Thanksgiving! However you celebrate, holidays and food can be a stressful combination. This week, you'll hear from a round table of adults with type 1, and one parent of a child with type 1, about the pitfalls of Thanksgiving and about ways to make it work. Great advice, tons of understanding and a lot of laughter.  Shoptalk this week includes a company called TempraMed. They make a product called Vivi, which can keep your insulin cold. We also talk to Drawn from Valor, an animation studio that's working on a great diabetes story called "Kara and the (not so) Dire Beastie." ----- 3:20 Stacey talks about Mike Lawson's "How to Eat Dinner with a Diabetic" video.  4:35 Stacey talks about an upcoming appearance where she'll be talking about Social Media.
