Greetings, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY Marion.....
Best Wishes on your Special Day....and on the next 364 days!
How's it all going? Do you have any questions or comments?
(keep quiet) In 52 years there has been a couple events to forget. The scariest one of a low blood sugar . Left the place that I was working at and an hour later I woke up driving around in a farmers field 80 kilometers away from where I had started. Not a good feeling. No road maps or street signs to let me know where I was at.

I do not know if I am late for your Birthday wishes?
Do you mind if I ask you if you are Maltese or of Maltese descent?
Saw your name on Linda's page and I said Wow another Maltese here. Your surname is typically Maltese.
Hi Marion - figured we long term diabetics should stick together . Sorry to hear about all your problems with Medtronics. I'm hoping when I need help with adjusting my insulin requirements on my pump I don't have too much problem (peri-menopause is causing some probs for me). I'm pretty well self taught on the pump, as I had no english speaking diabetic educator here where I live in Canada (my endo didn't want me going on one). So, I've had to learn to take care of myself, even prior to pumps, as I find medical folks I see know next to nothing about diabetes. I just have had to learn to educate myself over the years, be my own guinea pig (next life I come back as a well fed one ). Anyway, hang in there. BTW, am coming out to FL next month - so if you hear of some freakish sailing accident (due to us never having sailed in the oceans with tides - tho' we've taken courses) - pray that we don't damage the boat we're chartering (tho' still not sure about doing this just with my hubby - we may strangle each other when we decide the other one is shouting out the wrong orders - doesn't pay to both be Captains of one ship ).
