Roland replied to Andy Stanton's discussion '2020 "low profile" belt clip' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users
"I have also had a clip fall apart, and I bought a new one. I notice that the reason that it may be spinning is that you have to tighten the screw on the back. Use a small phillips (star) screwdriver. I find that I have been using a cell phone case…"

No so bulletproof anymore

Posted on January 6, 2008 at 2:01pm 6 Comments

I almost died a few weeks ago.



Yep. This bulletproof 38-year-old husband and father of three just about kicked the bucket.



I didn't see the flash of light.



I didn't see my grandparents or other friends and family waving me to come join them.



I didn't even see myself lying on the bed in the ER or the ICU writhing with pain.



But I almost died.



I've had diabetes for 23 years now. Diagnosed with Type I (which used to be called Juvenile Diabetes)… Continue

Hey Andy...I came across an old discussion you started about breaking your animas low profile clip. I just did the same thing! Is the $20 replacement on the animas website our only option?? What a ripoff! :)

I noticed you where in the area....

Ahmad and I will be having a get together this Friday night at 6pm we would love if you could join us...

Pitchers Lounge10800 Metcalf Ave, (Overland Park Marriott Hotel), Overland Park, KS
This popular, inexpensive restaurant is a sports lover's heaven. Locals find it a great place to get together, have a drink, enjoy a meal and unwind. Located in the Overland Park Marriott, just 20 minutes from downtown, it is worth a short drive for the sporty atmosphere and good food.
Diners can choose from an array of menu items, including pizza, salads, burgers, ribs, steak sandwiches and grilled chicken sandwiches. For those with an appetite, Key Lime Pie, apple cobbler and sundaes top off the meal.

hope to see you there..


Linzie
