    Alan and Mark round out the year by discussing the inevitable shift from childhood to young adulthood. Yes, listeners, it's THAT long-promised episode...

    As both girls enter womanhood within a few months of each other, the dads discuss what that's meant for their T1D's both physiologically and psychologically - and what it's meant for the dads!

    And then we round out the episode and the year with a couple of sweet guest appearances from the real stars of the show, and a beautiful musical performance from one of them to take us perfectly into the holidays...

  • DaD Ep 32: Distance Learning, Social Yearning
    Oct 14 2020
    Two dads of T1D daughters, on a podcast, trying to figure it all out.

    This is another of our episodes that we live-streamed but also edited down for your pod-listening pleasure - so just a heads up re some of the steam-related goofiness that you might hear in this ep.

    Goofiness was essential for this one though, as the dads discussed the virtues or otherwise of remote learning, something every family with school-age kiddos has had to deal with to some degree or another the past few months. It's certainly been something that's heavily impacted Anna and Ella, though their experiences differ greatly.

    As dads of kids with T1D, decisions re what to do and when have largely been dictated by our concerns over possible diabetes-related complications should Anna or Ella contract COVID-19. Increasingly, though, those determinations are being more and more influenced by what might be best for our children's mental health...
