How do you like to wear your insulin pump?

I’ve always wondered how people preferred to wear their pump…clipped outside or inside? To hide the pump? To protect the screen? To see the time more conveniently? :)

I would love to know what you think! Please leave a comment with your preference! :)  

The Big Blue Test

As you may or may not know…it’s National Diabetes Awareness Month!

November 14th is World Diabetes Day…and there are some amazing efforts to bring more awareness for diabetes and what the cure for diabetes would mean to all of us. This is where we all come in!

TuDiabetes and the Diabetes Hands Foundation is raising much more than diabetes awareness…they are raising money and for every view of this powerful and inspiring video, Roche Diabetes is giving a child in need a week’s worth of insulin! How amazing is that? Watching this for less than 2 minutes can make all the difference. :) 

Please watch, and please send it on to your friends, or reblog this post or link to the video! The goal is 100,000 views!  Right now, it’s up over 41,000 views!  You have no idea how much it would mean to all of us to do the Big Blue Test this year!  I know I will! :)
