I think we are at 356 now.

[Spinlady]

I am almost 35 years. My D Day was 12/26/82

[Engel]

I was diagnosed March 1st 2008. So about, let’s just say 9 years, 5 months.

I’m all for a free drink, we are getting close.

Sorry, not much help - just over 1 year for me.

[Chris]

401 Years!

[Aaron]

I am celerbating 30 years this week and my son has 8/12 of a year.

May as well round up and go with 432.

[Sam]

Both you and your son are t1? Wow I hope you’ll introduce yourself on the welcome page

Welcome, introduce yourself here!

Hello, welcome to FUDiabetes (For Unlimited Diabetes). We’re happy to have you here and look forward to sharing, learning, and exploring all things diabetes together. I’m Sam, formerly known as Sam19. I live in Alaska with my wife and 2 young children. I was diagnosed with T1 unexpectedly at age 29. I currently manage with tresiba, novolog MDI, and Afrezza. I use a dexcom G5 cgm intermittently. Nice to meet you all.

And if you wanted to share more of your whole story on the my story category… I believe you’re our first parent/child duo. Must be a handful…

47 years (OMG! Really?!), so I think you’re up to 479, but don’t trust me with any math.

[Eric]

@Beacher

47 years

OMG, I think you are now most senior on the site!

@docslotnick, is that right?

I salute you!

[docslotnick]

@Beacher Yeah, you beat me by a year.

And congratulations on a game well played! Welcome to the forum, BTW. Looking forward to hearing some of your hard earned D wisdom.

[Chris]

Wow, that is a mile marker. Those of us with just a few years under our belts are humbled.

I know that this is what you meant. Welcome!

[Michel]

@Beacher

47 years (OMG! Really?!)

@Beacher, you ARE the most senior member!

[Gary]

Since 1992, if my math is correct thats 25 years.

@Beacher

47 years (OMG! Really?!), so I think you’re up to 479, but don’t trust me with any math.

If @Beacher is correct with his math my 25 years puts us over the 500 mark.

@Eric

It got me to thinking, what are the combined years here? When we get to over 500 years amongst our members, Michel promised to buy a few rounds of beer for everyone. (I may have made up that last part…)

I like Bud Light.

[Michel]

@SLEE

I like Bud Light.

I am in for it now: the first two rounds of beer at the next FUD gathering are on me!

Now, when we get to 1,000 I am buying beer for the whole evening:

Combined years?

Well, I owe the first round of beer at the next FUDiabetes meetup I guess If we get to 1,000 combined years, I will buy every beer for the first night of the meetup!

So let’s keep it going!

[Sam]

They can have the beer Michel, you and I can share that bottle of Bordeaux

[Michel]

@Sam

you and I can share that bottle of Bordeaux

We have by far the better part of the bargain

[Sam]

They can have all the bud light they can stomach…
