Aubree Bartlett is a counselor at Camp Hamwi, a camp for children with diabetes in Ohio. Aubree is able to connect with campers because she was diagnosed with T1D as a teenager. But as the Bartletts discovered, type 1 diabetes is a family affair, and support from her parents and brother helped Aubree successfully manage her disease.
Dr. Sam Cataland, who served as the Camp Hamwi physician for more than 25 years, joins Central Ohio Diabetes Association director Cathy Paessun in this broadcast of DiabetesOhio. Dr. Cataland, a retired endocrinologist, talks about treatment of type 2 diabetes and how it has changed over time.
Drs. Stephen and Patricia Gabbe join Cathy Paessun, director of the Central Ohio Diabetes Association, to discuss Dr. Steve's five-decade journey with type 1 diabetes. The couple discuss the seriousness of T1D, as well as the value of having the support of loved ones while managing the disease.
Peter Margaritis, "The Accidental Accountant," joins Cathy Paessun, director of the Central Ohio Diabetes Association, to discuss his diagnosis of type 1 diabetes.
