Many baby boomers have lived with diabetes for decades, others are newly diagnosed. But everyone finds when they reach 65.. things get complicated. That’s because of course 65 is when Medicare kicks in. Our guest, Dennis Goldensohn has lived with T1D for 50 years and is finished his first year on Medicare. He’s got a lot to say. Plus.. a look at Medicare’s new policy regarding Dexcom Share – don’t throw away your receiver yet!

And I’ll share a little bit about the start of our summer and diabetes camp. Benny went noodling(!) and had a difficult diabetes situation later that night. Stacey shares how he handled it and what went through her mind hundreds of miles away.
