**shell**

I've been type 1 for over 15 years and I have never achieved that perfect control yet. I am busy fighting with the red tape to be considered for a pump to try that route as I feel I've exhausted all my other options.
I like to keep busy with my creative side, teaching myself guitar, dress making and developing my drawing skills. I'm sociable and can talk the ears off almost anyone but I also like quiet nights in on the sofa I front of a DVD.
