So glad to hear about your pump. Aubrey got her pump earlier this year and it’s made all the difference in her management. And great to hear about the church!

I have been a Type 1 diabetic since age 12 (I’m now 50). The greatest and most revolutionary change in my treatment has been the insulin pump. Back when I knew you in Bellevue, I was on shots and had terrible control (who knows how many years of my life were destroyed from age 12 to early 40s!). But the pump has certainly made vast improvements in my control. Now if I can stop eating sweets! That’s one of my dangers – “I have a pump, so I can deal with that cinnamon roll or that candy bar…”

The Lord is still working – despite my eating habits. I am pastor of a church in Plattsmouth, Nebraska which we started in 1998. Great to see your stuff. Tell your kids to keep diligent – they can and will live a nice long and productive life!

That’s a fantastic feeling… it’s wonderful to not be slave to the lender. You have a lot to be thankful for, Matt… great list. Hope you & the family have a wonderful Thanksgiving. :)

I’m also sorry you keep finding those strips everywhere.
I like the way you wrote this post… great job capturing your thoughts/feelings in it.
Honest, poetic, meaningful and more.

It’s a beautiful piece about a not-so-beautiful part of life.
