Hi Kelly,
I'm coming to realize that I'd like to have some friend/acquaintances in real life with diabetes, so I'm messaging folks who live in SF to see if they're interested in getting together. Let me know if you're interested! Cheers. :)

Kelly, thanks for giving me the link to James Hirsch's article. It will be useful to a bunch of people. You can see my ongoing list on my blog http://diabetestalkfest.com/blog/?p=189
Also, I was wondering if you would like to a chat guest on www.diabetestalkfest.com?

You've made your mark in diabetes and I have tremendous appreciation for your work. It's an honor to meet a legend ;) Welcome to TuDiabetes!

hi Kelly. I really like the diatribe.us website: sharp looking and sharper content, me thinks.

MInimed 522 & the sensors/transmitter are what I'm using. I like what I read about the Omnipod. Which pump are you using?

Upss! I guess I should have know who you are... Manuel teased me in the morning. I could say it was the time, but really, it is that I am just leaning a lot of all the great people, sites and information available. I think your site its amazing, I will check it up later with more brain cell awake. :)

Well, thank you very much for your kind comments on my blog... after I read them I felt like going to sleep and I probably had a smile on my face the whole night. Really, I feel humbled and honored! Thank you so much!

Also, I created a group "type III" for all the people that doesn't have diabetes but is affected by it, partners, spouses, parents, children, friends, etc. It does not have too much movement honestly, but I touch maybe you want to let him know.

Have a great night!
