After my son was diagnosed 3 weeks ago and before I found this group, I found a lot of people on Instagram who are sharing their experiences through photos and videos. Curious if others in this group also use Instagram to chronicle their experiences. If so, please share your username in the comments. Would love to follow you.

You can find me at T1D\_Dad\_Mike on Insta 📷

Hate to say it, but I suspect I am part of the slightly older set that doesn’t facebook or instagram. But like your instagram avatar photo.

I use Facebook to connect with family who live large distances away from us but i haven’t found a reason, or need, to use Instagram
