Sorry, Mayumi, about your rough morning. Hopefully, that will be the toughest thing you have to go through all day! I'm glad OmniPod was supportive. You guys might not be the only people reporting back-to-back failures.

People wondered how I got "adult onset diabetes" while living such a healthy lifestyle. Hmmm......shows you how uninformed the lucky, general public is.

Elaine, good to hear from you. Yes, someone with MD opened my eyes that day. It's true that if we stress too much it can make us counter more difficult stuff to deal with. I'm really trying my best to be stressfree. Writing helps me. Have a great day, and lots of love to you. Patti
