"How was eight weeks away at camp?" An interview with 17-year-old Benny - a podcast by Stacey Simms

Stacey's son spent the summer away at regular, non-diabetes sleepaway camp. 8 weeks managing all of his own care, with no remote monitoring. You had a lot of questions, including how he manages overnight lows:

Benny is 17, he was diagnosed just before he turned two and, as usual, he has a lot to say. He had quite a few adventures at camp, but everything turned out okay. We get his take on independence, responsibility and a glimpse into how a teen with type 1 thinks.

This podcast is not intended as medical advice. If you have those kinds of questions, please contact your health care provider.
