In this episode of the Diabetes Nerd Podcast, we catch up with Ali Dugger five months after her pancreas and kidney transplant. While she’s now insulin-free, her journey is far from challenge-free, and her gratitude through it all is nothing short of inspiring.
Ali opens up about what life really looks like after a transplant, the ups and downs she’s faced, and the mindset that keeps her moving forward. Her story is a powerful reminder of resilience, hope, and the reality of life beyond type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Stay tuned—we’ll be checking in with Ali again soon for the next chapter of her journey.
