Last week, we hosted an Empowered #patientchat on the power of patient storytelling with special guest Kerri Sparling (@patientrev). Kerri was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 1986, sits on the Patient Revolution team, and is working towards careful and kind care. The #patientchat community came together and shared their insights and best advice.

Her blog is SixUntilMe.com and she also sits on the board of Patient Revolution, a movement for careful and kind patient care.
