    How She Went From 68% to 91% Time in Range While Battling Cancer

    Jill was told she was “doing great.” But she knew she could do better. After developing Type 1 diabetes during cancer treatment, she faced unpredictable blood sugars, steroids, sleepless nights, and a lot of unanswered questions. She refused to settle. She kept learning. She kept asking questions. And she kept putting in the work. Now, her time in range has gone from 68% to 91%, and her A1C has improved from 7.2–7.3 to 6.6%. But perhaps the biggest win? She says she feels calmer because now she knows how to respond when things go off track. “I feel like, OK, I'm gonna be controlling this.” That’s the mindset.
