Show Notes

This week Kate talks with Maya, a Type 3c Diabetic, to learn about her story of being born with congenital hyperinsulinism, undergoing multiple surgeries before having her pancreas removed as an infant, and what it's like for her to live with Type 3c now. We also discuss how and why Maya raises awareness for Type 3c Diabetes and how we as a diabetic community can be more inclusive of the many different types that exist. To learn more and connect with Maya on social media you can find her on Tiktok and Instagram @papayabetic.
