Wow, that is impressive! I am at 38 years now. I intend on celebrating so much when I reach the 50-year mark that I won't make it to 70 ;)

Congratulations! Cannot imagine all the changes you've seen in T1 care in that time. Sounds like you've definitely kept up with all of them!

I only had the ketone testing as a kid, no glucometers. What changes have you seen? Did you reuse your syringes??

MY MOTHER & I WHEN I GOT OLDER ALWAYS BOILED THE SYRINGE & NEEDLE BEFORE EACH USE.THERE WAS NO BLOOD TESTING ONLY URINE TESTING.USED TO GO TO LAB FOR BG TESTING EVERY FEW MONTHS.I'M LUCKY TO STILL BE HERE,ESPECIALLY SINCE WE WENT THROUGH WW 2 IN FRANCE HIDING FROM THE NAZIS/GERMANS.HOW LUCKY CAN YOU BE...

Hi shoshana, please write a blog sometime about those years in WW 2 hiding from the Nazis. You have lived through so much history, both personal and world-history. Congrats on your Joslin Medal.
