Diabetes By The Numbers: Asha Brown

Asha Brown is a unique individual. Diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the age of five. She later developed diabulimia, a dangerous condition. Fortunately, she was able to overcome diabulimia, and she has been in recovery for seven years now.

The really cool thing about Asha is that she co-founded We Are Diabetes, which works with families patients, and health professionals across the USA to help and support those living with diabetes and eating disorders.

Today, we talk about diabulimia, how We Are Diabetes serves and supports, and the challenges faced by patients post-treatment. This was a conversation I’ve wanted to have for a long time, and I came away with a lot of knowledge that I didn’t have when we began.

    Hmm. I think I found someone to invite to TUDiabetes.

    I referred your interview to the TUDiabetes.org blog page for the week of July 18, 2016.
