Great opening speech from @Amybetic on Making Peace with Diabetes which covered the lows of living with #type1diabetes but how a belief in her own self-worth means #T1D no longer holds her back. All talks will be streamed on talkingaboutdiabetes.co.uk. #TAD4
Thank you for the shout out to @JDRFUK at #TADtalk2019 please come and talk to Helena and Rebecca on the stand during the breaks
