Ginger Vieira (above) is one of my favorite people. I’ve known her more than twenty years when we first rubbed shoulders at various ‘diabetes online community’ conferences. I loved her realness, honesty, boldness, wonder, openness. Author of several books and now hosting her own podcast and videos at Diabetes Nerd, she uses her enviable tech skills to keep us type 1s informed and keep it real.

I saw her short video below pop up on my feed yesterday and laughed all the way through. I cannot tell you how refreshing it is to see a type 1 role model let you see just how undone we become- just like you – managing blood sugars on a daily basis. Hats off Ginger!
