Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Stephen Yarbrough. Stephen was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the age of 70 (in 2025) after undergoing immunotherapy treatment for melanoma.
In an extremely rare outcome, the treatment that helped fight his cancer also triggered an autoimmune reaction that destroyed his pancreas’ ability to produce insulin. Only a fraction of patients ever experience this, yet Stephen’s journey shows how Type 1 diabetes can appear in unexpected ways and at any stage of life.
Over the past 10 months, Stephen has learned to navigate glucose monitoring, insulin therapy and an entirely new type of daily routine.
Shortly after his diagnosis, Stephen faced the heartbreaking loss of his wife of thirty-two years following her sudden pancreatic cancer diagnosis. His willingness to speak openly about grief, resilience and the lessons he has gained along the way offers a powerful perspective that will absolutely resonate with you.
Today Stephen joins us to share his path through illness, adjustment and recovering, and his appreciation for life’s blessings.

After 14 years of managing Type 1 Diabetes with injections, the idea of moving to an insulin pump brought up a lot of different thoughts for Eoin.
In this episode, he talks about what made him hesitant; the worry about trusting a device with his insulin, feeling “tied” to something 24/7, and just the mental adjustment of changing a routine he’d had for over a decade.
Eoin breaks down the practical concerns, the unknowns that made him pause, and how he’s working through the decision.
If you’ve ever been on the fence about switching your Diabetes management method, this episode digs into the real reasons behind that hesitation.

Part 2 of Eoin's chat with Bridget McNulty (@mcbridgetmcnulty).
Bridget is from South Africa and was diagnosed with Type 1 at the age of 25. Since then, she’s been hugely involved in the diabetes community — doing amazing work to raise awareness and make life with diabetes easier to understand and manage.
She’s a writer, content strategist, and co-founder of Sweet Life — South Africa’s largest online diabetes community. She also launched South Africans with Diabetes, the country’s first-ever diabetes podcast, designed to answer real questions without all the medical jargon.
Bridget is also the author of two books — The Grief Handbook, which she wrote after the sudden loss of her mother, and her latest, Daily Glimmers, which is all about finding small, positive moments in everyday life.
In this episode, we talk about grief, resilience, and the idea of “glimmers” — how small daily habits and moments can make a big difference, both in diabetes management and life in general.
