Hi Steve! Just getting back from vacation and got the comment you left telling me how happy you are on the pump!!! Good for you - and I'm glad you like it as much as I do. Granted, there is still a lot I have to learn and it does get very frustrating at times . . . . but I'm so happy with it and wouldn't go back to MDIs for anything!!! Keep me posted on how it's going!

hmmm i have no idea why anyone would tell you that. if you carry the gene, you carry the gene. there is no age factor involved. most do get it at a younger age, but it is not uncommon for others to be diagnosed at a later age. there is no question that i am a type 1 diabetic and i'm sure there is no question that those that have gotten it at later age are not either. hope that clears it up for you. jen
