Fourteen Years

Sorry it's been awhile since I've posted, but I recently "celebrated" 14 years with diabetes. I don't celebrate having diabetes, but rather I celebrate my ability to cope with it so well and be healthy after so many years.

Read about my fun and crazy day here.

PSSST! Don't forget to fill out the adults w/ type 1 conference survey!

Hey! Have you filled out the survey about the adults with type 1 conference? We REALLY need a lot of people to fill it out to let us know what you think so we can get this show on the road, so please fill out this survey if you haven't already:

You'll also have the opportunity to suggest a name for the conference (so we can quit calling it the "adults with type 1 diabetes conference"...) and if your name is cho… Continue

What were you like at 22?

So, as some people may know, I turned 22 yesterday (for those who didn't know, don't worry, there's always next year!).

I found this question on another blog called No Pasa Nada and I would love to hear all of your reactions:

What were you like at 22? And if you're not 22 yet, what do you hope you will be like?

I'm really looking forward to hearing everyone's reactions. I just think it's fascinating that at the same age, we can all be in so many different pla… Continue

Hi Allison,

Thanks for adding me as a friend! Great to meet you at the picnic. (BTW, after about ten side-by-side readings with the WaveSense and the Freestyle Flash, they are generally within 5-10 mg/dl of each other, and so far one doesn't consistently read higher than the other. I'll keep testing them now and then.)
