I understand you have a daughter who is 13 with diabetes. What kind of sweetner do you use for her? I have been told that nutrasweet is very bad for you and I will not use any of those other bad for you sweetners.

Just cheated and looked over at your blog after reading a thread -- didn't know you were both a homeschooling mom and a Tracy (sp?) Ullman fan. So commendable. . . . . have a good day.

Hi!

Don't know if you've got a word of advice for me, but thought I'd ask -- I've seen you recently recommend using those ports for giving shots to a young kid so you can give shots any time. If we successfully used one of those with diluted insulin, do you think it would be inferior to untethered pumping?
I ask because I just opened our package and directions for the Ping. I do know that it will not be as hard or complicated as it all looks, but it got me wondering if we could stay low-tech by using one of those ports and get the same affect. Anyway, if you've got an opinion I'd love to hear it, especially as I see you've got a ping, also. Thanks. Lisa

Happy birthday! :D

Happy birthday.
