Thrilled to see more Type 1 Diabetes representation showing up in the media and popular culture. This time, it's Barbie. Mattel just introduced its first-ever Barbie doll with Type 1 Diabetes, and of course I had to highlight it.

This is such a cool and meaningful step forward for visibility, especially for kids who do not often see their experiences reflected in the toys and stories around them. Representation matters. This is one more way to help children feel seen, understood, and empowered.
