What events???
If you follow TCOYD.org (Take Care of Your Diabetes), it is a website with diabetes information. They have virtual diabetes presentations a few times a year. I am sure there are many more organizations that do that, but TCOYD.org is one that I follow.
TCOYD presentations and Diabetes Sangha (meditation group for T1Ds)
KCR – A Diabetes Sangha sounds appealing … Do you attend in person or on Zoom? If in person, where and how often do you meet, etc? And if on Zoom is it open to any or all with TID who may be genuinely interested?
I attended the virtual TCOYD event last Saturday. I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned a lot, as I always do. The part about managing diabetes during surgery and in the hospital is particularly relevant to me right now. TCOYD videos and podcasts are available free to anyone online if you miss events in real time: https://tcoyd.org
Virtual TCOYD, in person RideJDRF.
And, virtual Type1Nation (JDRF) conferences.
Rcpts virtual conference and a couple of my monthly T1D women’s support group meetings.
TCOYD virtual conferences. The one last Saturday was well worth the time.
Yes, in answer to the question I have attended several virtual events with TCOYD over the past year. Keeps me in the loop until the time comes when I can once again attend live TCOYD events in person.
i was going to virtually attend the Joslin Medalist gathering for the past 2 years, but caregiving has prevented me from making the commitment of time.
It’s great to see attention on community engagement for people with diabetes. Events—whether virtual or in-person—can make a real difference by offering support and up-to-date resources. I’ve seen similar benefits in other online communities I follow, like https://carxstreetsmodapk.com/
, where shared experiences help people stay informed and connected.
It’s interesting to see how community events—both virtual and in-person—can make such a difference in diabetes awareness and support. Engaging people through research updates and info sessions really helps bridge knowledge gaps. I’ve also found online platforms like https://bitlifeapkmods.com/
useful for staying connected and informed in other health-related communities.
It’s great to see how community events—whether virtual or in person—can make such a difference for those managing diabetes. Shared experiences often lead to better awareness and access to helpful tools. While exploring resources that simplify daily routines, I came across Torrentio, which has been useful in streamlining content access in my own work: https://gettorrentio.com/
— different niche, but the idea of making life easier through smart tools resonates across communities.
It’s inspiring to see so many people getting involved in diabetes community events, whether online or in person. I’ve found that even simple tech tools like https://bloxstrappc.com/
can make virtual sessions more accessible and engaging by improving platform usability. Has anyone else noticed digital tools enhancing their event experience?
