T1D since 1984. Early adoptor of pump and CGM technology. Came to my senses in 2012 when I began eating a lower carb diet and also started a variety of better lifestyle habits including attention to sleep, mindfulness practices and consistent exercise. Began using DIY Loop with a MM722 pump in 2016. One of the best things I’ve found to control my glucose levels and greatly improve my quality of life. Items in my past that may interest others: I lived aboard a 33’ sailboat on SF Bay for 15 years; I had a yellow lab diabetes alert service dog for 13 years. I’ve been blessed with one daughter and one grand-daughter.
