In December of 2002 I was diagnosed as a type 1 diabetic. As most people who encounter type 1 diabetes later in their life, you go through several months of shock and denial. Those first few months were quite hard but it did not take long before my blood sugar was under control. The following year I discovered the insulin pump. It is a great tool and a huge blessing.

Yesterday was pretty normal for the most part. My blood
sugars were doing fair and my activity was normal.

Yesterday afternoon we decided to take my daughter ice skating since the
weather was nice (45 F). I have ice skated before, my wife hasn't, so I was
excited to show my daughter the ice.
