What is screeening for type 1 diabetes? Who should be screened? Is it right for my family? Rhodes and Alana Ritenour discussed the potential benefits of screening and their decision to screen their children in the latest episode of the Type 1 on 1 podcast ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Rhodes and Alana are powerhouses of diabetes - alongside their positions on national advisory boards, founding the @diabetessupportgroup, volunteering in their local community and advocating for type 1 diabetes screening, theyโ€™ve created their own diabetes book series, The Adventures of Rhodes & Alana. Their work is driven by a mission to give back to the community that has supported Rhodes throughout his life, since he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 1983 at the age of 5. Adventure is right - we cover so much in this episode! You can watch or listen via the link in bio ๐Ÿ”—
