So it’s time I came out from behind the curtain so to speak for a minute. I am just too damn excited. I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when I was 3 years old. I’ve been diabetic for as long as I have memories (except one that I have from the crib). Today I started on an insulin pump. You can see it here. I have to say it’s pretty damn cool. And when I got back to work, I found this article on blood glucose monitors waiting for me. A painless way to test blood sugar would be a dream come true for millions of people.
Anyway, I feel a bit like a cyborg now. My pump is bright blue and so far is working fine. I can barely tell it’s there. So for any diabetics out there who happen to read this blog, check out the pump. Now back to the regularly scheduled programming.
