Comedian Tracy Morgan Shows His Belly Exposing a Dexcom Transmitter
Tracy Morgan uses Dexcom!
Fans of comedian Tracy Morgan won't be surprised to hear that Tracy exposed his belly last week on the Emmy red carpet. But what none of us may have expected... Tracy - a type 2 diabetic - was wearing a Dexcom continuous glucose monitor.
So far I haven't found one news account that mentions his Dexcom transmitter, it seems to me that the websites are just excited to mistakenly refer to Tracy's stretch marks as, "scars from his accident". Too funny!

I survived the deadliest day in Everest’s history, and I’m still surviving it
Listeners of my podcast may remember a two part conversation that I had with Elna Narula, mother of Svati Narula. Svati (a person who has type 1 diabetes) was tragically caught in an avalanche on Mount Everest and survived. Most recently Svati has published an article called, "I survived the deadliest day in Everest’s history, and I’m still surviving it" about her ordeal on Everest and I wanted to share with you.
You can read Svati's article here and listen to my conversation with her mother on the Juicebox Podcast - Part 1, Part 2.
All episodes of the podcast are at JuiceboxPodcast.com, on iTunes or your favorite podcast app.

Written by me in 2006 this document has been modified each year since kindergarten and continues to grow and change. I hope that it helps you in creating your own, I relied heavily on the JDRF and ADA templates that were available online back in 2006 as I created Arden's.
I'm pretty excited that we were able to get Arden's iPhone listed as a medical device this year! #DexcomShare
