Diabetes Connections With Stacey Simms | Type 1 Diabetes |

Jaime Ferrer was diagnosed with type 1 at age three.. and this summer was drafted into Major League Baseball by the Minnesota Twins. I caught up with him to ask him your questions about works out, playing with a pump, how he managed the college recruitment process, and more. He’s a great kid and this was a fun one. I should note that many of you know Jamie’s mother Mila Ferrer. She’s been blogging about her family’s experience for a long time, does a lot of work with Beyond Type 1 and is an advocate for the Latino diabetes community. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her on some of the past Beyond Type 1 projects. Jaime was drafted by the Twins this summer and he’s currently practicing and playing with their minor league team Fort Myers Mighty Mussels. He is also part of the Tandem Diabetes Ambassador program.
