We made this back in 2012...back when we were called The Diabetes Duo and back when people actually respected intellectual property on the Internet.

A classic of ours from 8 years ago, but several people feel the need to steal it and pass it off as their own. Should I be flattered or pissed?
The judgmental faux concern if one is not doing diabetes like they do. Or a doctor saying telling theirT1 patient that they really need to use the devices. I’m lucky to have an Endo who suggests without pushing. Not everyone is so fortunate.
It's great that there are diabetes devices that can help PWD achieve better control. What's not great, some PWD being bullied by medical professionals and other PWD into using those devices even when they have great control via other methods. It should be a hardware choice, not a hard-sell mandate.

I'm grateful that insulin was discovered 104 years ago because I've gotten used to this thing called "being alive."
A classic of ours from 8 years ago. Often stolen...I mean...imitated, but never duplicated!
