#63 You Too Can Build an Artificial Pancreas at Home: part 1 with Dana Lewis May 25, 2016

Show notes

Dana Lewis has type 1 diabetes and one day she decided to try to make the alarms louder on her Dexcom CGM. That simple endeavor led Dana and her husband Scott to build their very own artificial pancreas... then they shared the code that they wrote online. Dana says that anyone who wants to, can do the very same thing. This is a story about ingenuity, community and the desire to live a better life.

In episode 64 of the JBP I talk with Scott and get his perspective on their journey.

#58 Diabetes Insurance Appeals Apr 26, 2016

Show notes

Hell hath no fury like a D-Mom scorned by a greedy insurance company. Listen to Faye tell me about how she fought back and won when Humana arbitrarily decided that her two year old daughter didn't require and insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor. Spoiler: The Diabetes community was there to help when Esme needed support.
