Good morning everybody , it is a beautiful shiny winter day here in Bucharest, Romania.

Alice (LOL for Good Morning America), of course, you reminded me about another very important fact in my life, the job which wouldn't allow me at all, for the moment, to have a baby.

There is not so much to say about Romania. There was a joke emailed some time ago which represent us the best: if the end of the world is coming, come to Romania, cause we are 50 years before )).... From my point of view, this is the best short presentation about us... all the health system is up-side-down.

But to be honest, I should also say that diabetics have a very special good treatment. Usually, our public hospitals are horrible and nobody looks at you if you don't bribe him (meaning you don't give him some amount of money )... maybe it's unbelievable but it's true.

But where I was, at the diabetic section, I couldn't believe how good everybody treated us... doctors, nurses and all the staff. So, from this point of view, everything it is quite ok. The worst part is that we are the latest to hear about the news.

Maybe you won't believe me, but when I started to look for a pump, I saw that there is only ONE distributor for this here and when I asked at specialized stores about it, they were looking at me like I was an alien ) ... something like WHAT?!?!? what is a pump???? ))).... I told them: aaaaa... hello? We leave in 20 century.... )) (very funny it was). By the way, about the pump, I heard about one year ago from this forum not because it is a normal way for diabetics to be treated here in Romania or because my doctor told me....

Lucky me, because of the job, I have to travel quite often outside the country, in Europe... so if I will decide at some moment to move to pump, I have more chances then others to buy one...

OK, enough with my stories, I will get back to work now
