Listening to psychologist Michelle Sorenson's talk about #mentalhealth and #T1D: "Psychological and physical pillars of health are one and the same. Psychological support is often the missing piece in diabetes care." #truth #T1Conference

Things might want to relay is that have #T1D, what infusion site looks like (if wearing pump), whether or not you're okay with them touching the infusion site, conversations around hypos and how to treat should they occur. #T1Conference

.@AliceYYCheng's presentation 'Let's Talk about Sex' happening now. Relaying the importance of having conversations with partner about #T1D up front before sex, if can.

Also, the all important debate of pump on or pump off! #T1Conference
