Any other long-term pump users out there?

I’m looking to connect with people who started insulin pump therapy in the mid to late 1980s and have stayed on it continuously. I began pumping in 1987 and have been on a pump ever since.

I’m interested in comparing long‑term patterns — scar‑tissue issues, site‑rotation strategies after decades of wear, and the psychological side of being tethered to a device for 35 to 40 years.

If you started pumping in that era (or close to it), I’d really like to hear what your long‑term experience has been. Thanks!
