Hello! I’m a busy woman writing about living with diabetes and using an insulin pump. I was diagnosed with diabetes in my early 30s. I have LADA Diabetes which is being treated as Type 1 for me personally, since my body no longer produces enough insulin. One of the main differences from Type 1 is that its progression was gradual over a number of years, so I didn’t immediately need insulin.
I originally started a blog about my experience with LADA diabetes.
I’ve created this website as a more focused place to specifically share my experiences, tips, successes and struggles with treating my diabetes with insulin pump technology. My hope is that I can help other people with diabetes, and I want to reach the widest audience possible, as insulin pump use is common among people with Type 1 Diabetes, and even some people with Type 2 Diabetes use insulin pumps. There are even other less common types of diabetes that also may be treated with insulin pump therapy.
I am based in the United States and I work as a software developer.
This site is in its infancy. I’ve focused on content over design to get this site launched. When time allows, I plan to upgrade the design too. First, I want to get this content out to you all!
