Pump Pouches

I have discovered a wonderful company in Canada that makes pouches for pumps that aren't boring!! The woman that started this company did so in order to cover the costs of her daughter's pump supplies. The pouches are all really well made. The URL is http://www.collinscreations.ca/

Hi, Sheila. I was dxs with T1 in '83 and chronic depression in 1996. I, like your parents, was dxd with bipolar eventually, but I understand depression- intimitely. I just had the feeling a short word of encouragement would help if just for a little time. I just came out of a very low (and not BG) feeling drained and unmotivated. I got my sea legs back after a good tak and some sound sleep. I wish you peace, health and a world of stable support. You can always write if you'd like. Take really good care, OK? Virgil
