Kicking down barriers: Chris Bright is inspiring the next generation of athletes with T1D
Manage episode 435172268 series 182538
It’s hard to believe that a generation ago, doctors were still telling newly diagnosed people that they shouldn’t play sports with type 1 diabetes. My guest – Chris Bright – is not just an example of how wrong that thinking was and is.. he’s actively now helping others pursue their dreams with T1D. Chris was diagnosed as a child back in 1999 and is the founder of The Diabetes Football Community. Chris shares his early challenges, how his mother’s experience with type 1 affected their family, and what he wants you all to know about playing any sport with diabetes.
