This week I have gone back to work. My brain is fried from all the medications and lack of sleep, so please forgive me if I ramble on. As well I am going nuts because my life is revolving around nothing more than my health. I just hate that. [...]
“You are a very strong person” I am told time and time again. How could this be so, as my body seems to be falling apart?!
I believe the answer is because I came to terms with my own mortality a very long time ago. It has given me a better understanding of how [...]

I am not sure why, I will find out later today, but insurance has denied my request for an insulin pump and Continuous Glucose Monitor. I am not surprised about the CGM, but floored they denied me an insulin pump.
