Episode Description

Determined to serve her country even after a diabetes diagnosis kept her out of the military, Caroline Marshall found a way. She served as a police officer, interned with NCIS and she's now a special agent with the FBI. You'll hear on this Mother's Day episode that she and her husband, a National Guardsman, just had a baby.

Country singer Ben Rue joins us to talk about his journey with diabetes. He's teaming up with Roche for their #BuckOffDiabetes campaign.

In our Know Better segment a look at sharing CGM data. Good advice from Kerri Sparling & Dr. Bill Polonsky for talking about it before you jump right in.
