Chances are, unless you personally know a diabetic, you'll find it hard to believe how managing the disease affects every aspect of life. Mandi Buckle knows the reality of it all too well. She's been a Type 1 diabetic since the age of two. Her son, Oliver, was diagnosed in June of last year at the age of four. I invited them to our studio for a conversation. Mandi Buckle did most of the talking, but Bernice Hillier started by saying hello to Oliver and asking him to explain what diabetes is.
