@breakthrought1d: This Father’s Day, we’re sharing one of the most heartfelt moments from the latest episode of Voices of T1D. Derek Theler opens up about a deeply personal concern he faced when thinking about becoming a parent: the possibility that his future children could inherit his type 1 diabetes (T1D). Then his mom asked him a question that completely changed his perspective. It’s a powerful reminder of the hopes, fears, and decisions many families navigate—and the importance of finding perspective along the way. Whether they’re raising a child with T1D or living with it themselves, the dads in this episode share personal stories, hard-earned wisdom, and candid moments that remind us we’re not alone on this journey. 🎙️ Watch Episode 4 of Voices of T1D now on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.

MattyP | T1D :
I’m 34 and found out I had T1D 5 days before our 2nd son was due to be born. It’s been pretty terrifying at times, but I have zero regrets about having children, even with T1D.
