I can't believe you've been pumping for 25 years - so since 1985? I'd love to hear your story about the changes you've seen and experienced, would you consider writing a guest blog? Way to go Kathy!

I'll do my bit over the weekend. After 35 years of diabetes, with 25 years on a pump I think I can add my tuppence worth. (that dates me, doesn't it!) Your letter is great, dealing well with the issues. I do hope Health professionals dealing with pumps will respond too as there are some with a negative attitude who are quick to air their views as well. Thanks for sending this on.

T1 is not visable or dramatic like other disabilites and the benefits of good control arent immediate (or what gets governments re-elected it seems). Thanks again you guys! My letter has been written. Huge respect for Ruthie and you guys giving a voice to diabetes.
