Hello! Steve. Just wanted to say i was thinking of you. Had a not so good day at work. I was going low. Ask to get some carbs and test and was told to punch for break. I was like NO! this is against disablity act. They did not beleive me. But i stuck to my guns and didnt punch. They found out they could not make me punch. And i have a drs note stateing to treat lows and then go back my duties of work.Well they just do not understand my new conditions. But they do not have to know about PUMPY. Other than that things are going well. And life is so much better this way i would not go back to mdis ever.How is omipod life? I hope to go on cgms sometime this summer. Take care, thanks for your strong support and encourgement.diabeticidol94

Hello! Things are going well the first couple of days. Then the numbers started to raise. Decided to change site. Good thing i did it was kinked. That was scary when it said no insulin delevery and bells and whistles went off. But since then been in 100s to low 76 today. Change site tommorrow so will see. Hope pumpy behaves or else or will have to punidh her with a time out lol!. Well take care. diabeticidol94
