When Diapoint Founder Pamela Durant's son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes as a toddler, university was years away. Now he's started university, and the preparation that helped him get there began long before move-in day. This season on Dialogue: The Diapoint Podcast, Pam takes the guest seat as we ask her about the experiences behind her work at Diapoint. In this episode, Pam shares what building independence at every age and stage looked like in her family: how she helped her son take on more of his daily diabetes care as he grew, how they prepared for life on campus, and how she prepared herself to step back. Whether your child is still in primary school or already choosing a university, this conversation offers a place to start.   Join the Diapoint mailing list for exclusive insights, offers, and diabetes wisdom.
