Welcome to another Thriveabetes interview! This time I’m joined by Aoife Gordon from Sligo and the creator of The Sugar Fairy. She was diagnosed with diabetes at age 11, is now 28 years old and works in digital design. In this video she talks about her diagnosis, the terrible teenage years and how meeting another person with diabetes showed her she wasn't alone.
