Webinar: New Paths Towards a Cure for Type 1 Diabetes presented by Dr. Leonardo Ferreira

What if the future of Type 1 diabetes included restoring the body’s ability to make insulin again? Join us for a conversation with Dr. Leonardo Ferreira as we explore promising research on beta cell replacement and what it could mean for people living with T1D — now and in the future. This is not a heavy science lecture — it’s a chance to understand the big ideas, ask questions, and be part of the conversation.

The Wit and Wisdom of Fran Carpentier: 57 Years with Type 1 Diabetes

“I think that my first husband felt that I made life hard for us. I couldn’t be as spontaneous as he probably wanted me to be. You know this was pre-insulin pumps and CGMs. We were young, he wanted to go out and do things and I felt I had to do things a certain way to keep my sugar really well-controlled. I think I’m the most fun person in the room, but he felt that I was a wet blanket. There was probably truth to it forty years ago. Today, technology has freed up life for us T1Ds. Of course that freedom means relying on all manner of medical apparatus and being visible about it.”
