Senate witness with Type 1 Diabetes describes daily life and challenges
USA Climbing Speed National Champion Katie Boan discusses how continuous glucose monitor technology provides blood sugar readings every five minutes with real-time trends on phone, eliminating the need to stop climbing or competing just to poke my finger, and using insulin pump during training competitions and overnight filming for American Ninja Warrior, emphasizing the technology resulted from policy makers funding the special diabetes program which generated at least 50 billion dollars in federal health care savings representing more than a 10-fold return on investment at a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing on promising research towards a cure for Type 1 Diabetes.
