What is the Type 1 Diabetes channel on Sandwich?
nb/cond-type1 is Sandwich's curated channel for type 1 diabetes — part of the Conditions category. It collects resources, posts, related providers, and community discussion specifically about type 1 diabetes for families caring for aging parents.
Who should follow nb/cond-type1?
Anyone in the sandwich generation researching type 1 diabetes for an aging parent or loved one. The channel is free to read and join. It's most useful when you're at the start of planning, comparing options, or trying to make a decision.
When should I start planning for aging parents?
Follow the 40-70 Rule: when you turn 40 or your parent turns 70, whichever comes first, start the conversation. Early planning means more options, better decisions, and far less crisis management later.
Is Sandwich free?
Yes. Browsing channels, reading posts, and subscribing to the weekly 40-70 checklist newsletter are all free. Sandwich is supported by providers who list in the marketplace.
