25. The Krueger Sisters on Life in a Family with 6 T1D Siblings
In this episode for moms, dads, and caregivers of T1D kids, I’m joined by not one, but TWO guests: sisters and TikTok stars Bellé and Ana Krueger!
Bellé and Ana are two out of eight siblings from Wisconsin. Six out of the eight siblings all live with type one diabetes. This episode is a fascinating look into the benefits and unexpected challenges of growing up with T1D siblings.
We discuss…
- The Krueger family tree and the different timelines of T1D diagnoses
- How relationships with type one diabetes can be so vastly different from person to person, even while growing up in the same exact environment
- The importance of communication and how their parents manage six children with different T1D needs
- The power of social media within the T1D community and so much more!
