This came in the box with my new insulin pump. For the record, no one holding an insulin pump is ever as happy as that lady. Or her dog. #t1d #diabetes

A nice weekend at Allerton Park in Monticello, IL for my wife's birthday. A nice place for post-meal sugar-control walks! #t1d #diabetes #allerton

The 1940 version of Elliott Joslin's "Diabetic Creed." There were lots of versions, varying with each new edition of the textbook _Diabetes Mellitus_. Mostly advice to doctors on diagnosis and treatment, some moral judgments and eugenics appear, too! #diabetes #t1d #history

It’s true in main, and it’s helpful to remind diabetics to take care. But given that we diabetics often grow up with this stark moral opposition, it’s no wonder we’re exhausted and slightly neurotic. #t1d #diabetes #chronicillness
