1 year anniversary

Well well, it's been one year (actually as of tomorrow Feb 9, but I won't be online then) since I started pumping. Wow, with all the heartache and issues I've been through I can't belive it's been one year since assimilation.

Anywho, just thought I'd share.

Congratulations! A celebration is in order. Or how about some sort of sacrificial burning of a used infusion set to the insulin pump gods?

The Catholic upbringing in me is clawing its way out again...

Hi Injecto,

Congratulations . . . or happy anniversary. I'm sending you wishes of a happier and easier second year. I'm really enjoying being back on the pump after a 4 year hiatus. I love it actually.

Be well and have a nice weekend.

Injecto,
I hope the sacrifices continue to bring good results. I love my pump but really took a long while until it loved me back.
5+ years on the thing and counting.
Mike
