So she sits in her domicile in the quiet little town of Montvale and thinks to her self " I wonder whats going on outside? just outside that window there? a whole world of unseen treasures is right there a few feet from my grasp.

Adriana replied to Leotha Fleming III's discussion 'Surgery While Pumping'"I've had 2 surgeries while on the pump and they put me on an insulin drip at the hospital and would switch to glucose water if i was going lower (someone tested my blood sugar every so often)"
john replied to Adriana's discussion 'Pump battery life?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"I too got the "Energizer story". I have since learned that any old brand will do. I had periods when the 723 would indicate low battery, but I tested that battery and it showed about 1.46V or more, which should have been adequate. So I…"
samaci replied to Adriana's discussion 'Pump battery life?' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users"For both my MM pumps, I was always advised to use Energizer MAX.

Janice replied to Adriana's discussion 'Bullying and Diabetes?'"Hi Adriana,
After listening to your story, I think the best thing you could do is try to educate other kids about what it's like to live with type 1 diabetes. They are probably criticizing you because they don't know anything about the…"
