| | | 35th anniversary of D i'v been diabetic for 35 years today, and they have been good years, fair to good control so i shouldn't moan about last 18 months problems with it, but i know i do.
But the more i think about it, i have had it good and hopefully once pumping from early jan, it will get even better.
I also know i will have the help and support from everyone here should i need it.
Thanks all
