Wow! Impressive!!! And I thought figuring out snorkeling and dosing was a trick!

Bigotry, reliance on unsupported 'facts', unkindness, unfairness.
Yes, I saw this, it’s great. I wonder if having T1 also makes some of us determined to do the things that T1’s thought to mitigate against. It’s the ultimate I Can Be Me And More challenge.
Totally hope they emerge triumphant.

Hypos, rude people, ignorance and grey days.
Wow amazing story, and great attitude.

I climbed Snowdon last weekend with the family and the dog, didn't quite work out with bg levels as was borderline hypo most of the way up despite eating copious amounts of wine gums, biscuits and glucotabs and no insulin on board, ate a huge sandwich and bag of crisps at the top, took 50% bolus and walked down with levels around 7 mmol/l, I can't imagine doing that continuously though, my legs were shot after that one despite running 2-3 times a week !!!
