What’s normal aging… and what’s something more? Join us for an important conversation with Nancy A. Allen as we explore memory health in older adults living with Type 1 diabetes — and what you can actually do about it. You’ll learn how to recognize warning signs, understand how blood sugar and lifestyle impact brain health, and identify conditions that can mimic dementia — some of which may be treatable or even reversible. This isn’t about fear — it’s about clarity, confidence, and knowing your next step.
