I’m not sure episodes get much more special than this… This week I had the absolute honour of interviewing my mum, Sandra.

We tore up the interview notes and just had a proper (and really quite rare) mother-daughter chat about how a single finger prick in the doctor’s surgery back in 1996 changed the entire course of our lives.

It was so fascinating to hear about my diagnosis through my mum’s eyes, and how it shaped not only me, but my brothers and my parents too.

Although the experiences and the memories aren’t all rosy, it was a really positive experience to head back to that time, and also an opportunity to reflect on how far we’ve come, 27 years on.

On or off the microphone, I’d absolutely encourage you to do the same with anyone who’s been involved in your life with diabetes - this is a really special chat and I truly hope there’s something in here for you.
