Diabetes Connections With Stacey Simms | Type 1 Diabetes |

Aerospace engineer April Blackwell works at NASA’s Mission Control. She dreamed of being an astronaut but her type 1 diabetes diagnosis at age 11 changed everything. Since that day, though, she has found ways to break down barriers and pursue her love of space. Check out Stacey's new book: The World's Worst Diabetes Mom! April calls herself a "rule-questioner" and shares where asking those questions got her.

In Tell Me Something Good, a milestone for a tween with T1D – and her whole family gets in on the celebration. Sign up for our newsletter here This podcast is not intended as medical advice.
