The official podcast from Diabetes Victoria, hosted by Jack Fitzpatrick

When Ben Sive was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes last year, he thought his career as a passenger aircraft pilot was over. In this candid chat with podcast host Jack Fitzpatrick, Ben shares how this historically career-ending diagnosis hasn’t kept him grounded at all. Thanks to his determination, support from his family, friends and employer, as well as advances in aviation medicine and careful management of type 1 diabetes, Ben became Australia’s first pilot with type 1 diabetes to be allowed to fly a commercial passenger jet.
