Our journey: life at sea with T1D

We’re the Donahue family—two parents and four kids, three of whom live with Type 1 diabetes. Our mission is simple: show the world that chronic conditions don’t have to define who you are – by setting off on an epic sailing adventure.

From insulin storage to sunset watches, pump changes and treating low blood sugars to trimming the jib, we will document our trip and share the highs and lows—both literal and figurative—and stories that help others chart hopeful journeys.

We carry a lot of juice to keep morale (and blood sugar) steady, or at least up!

Along with a lot of other medical gear…

But we don’t let it hold us back!
