Ive been type 1 since I was 5 yrs old ...I was DX'd in 1983 ...now I'm 28 yrs old ,and on a MM 512 ...I will be upgrading this month...I just don't know to which pump I will be upgrading to ...I cant seem to decide which one I like the most ..any suggestions ?

What was your funniest low moment? If you never had a low, tell us something funny that happend to you.
I crashed at the grocery store ...everyone thought I was intoxicated ...I kept lifting up my arm to show them my medical ID bracelet ...but they thought I was being combative ...so they were trying to restrain me ..so I took off running towards the endcap by the checkout line I dove into the endcap and starting ripping apart candy bar wrappers and just cramming them in my mouth ...Finally someone in the line said "Oh She isnt drunk I think she is diabetic ...after thet I dont remember anything other then waking up on the floor with the manager asking me if i'm OK ....so now I never go to the grocery store without eating first !!! I dont know if u think this was funny but I bet I really looked funny sitting there eating like I hadnt eaten in a month !!

RICE krispie treats are a seriously good quick fix

My thoughts and prayers are with Kyla and her family. It's unfair that a mother should have to leave her children at such a young age. I hope that her daughters can stay strong and remember the good times.
I am so sorry to hear the news of Kyla. I can relate to much of her life. I'm a mother of two and on a pump as well.
When I prepare for bed tonight Kyla and her family will be whom I pray for. Although I never got a chance to talk to Kyla, as a woman and mother, I can't stop crying for her untimely passing.
Good luck to you and your family. She's in heavan now and looking down on all of us. She's an angel.
Wow, I'm so sadden by this news, I did not know you but you were apart of the Tudiabetes.com family. You so young, May God Bless your two young daughter and your family. My deepest sincere comfort to your family, I know you are in the arms of the Lord. I pray for peace for your family.
May you rest in peace sweetheart. God bless you and your family and especially the little girls. It's too sad you had to go so soon. You are now in God's hands.
Love to all the family. So young with a young, beautifly girls, just so unfair. My prayers and thoughts go out to her family, especially her girls and all her true friends.
You will be in my thoughts and prayers. I never got to talk to you, but like many, I heard about your passing through Gina's announcements. I'm sure you were a beautiful, vibrant person who was full of life. I also thought your grocery store low story was pretty funny - if *I* saw someone raiding the candy bars like a maniac (well, okay, I'd probably think, "wow is she low?" first, BUT...), I'd probably think they were either A) on a dare or B) huuuunnnnnnn-GRY.
Here is a big (((((((hug))))))) to everyone who knew you... I hope you truly are in "a better place"
