Maternal mortality is more prevalent in the United States then you may expect and taking the time to understanding the simple steps that will help to avoid this unnecessary and catastrophic lose of life is beyond important.

Text messages to manage Arden's type 1 diabetes, who knew that would be so effective?! While at school or anytime that Arden is out of the house, the simple process has led to lower a A1c, better grades, an increase in self-confidence and much more.

This episode wasn't easy to research but the end result was a better understanding of how Arden's Day went from a type 1 diabetes advocacy website to the patient blog that it is today. Spoilers, it was a video of Arden describing a low blood glucose induced seizure that revealed the power of transparency and all of the good that comes from not hiding even the ugliest truths about living with type 1 diabetes.
iTunes subscribers see new episodes immediately while others may have to wait until the show populates.
