[QUOTE="Fairygodmother, post: 2256547, member: 68789"] 50+ years of T1 now and still no complications. No Nabarro medal yet due to lockdown, but I’d rather look at the green leaves and the sprouting veg and flower seedlings than flaunt a medal on the daily exercise outing. What’s a medal (or a Care badge and applause for that matter!) compared to staying alive and feeling ok. I’ve a new right knee, too, which is brilliant now. I’m a happy old bird, currently advised to stay well away from others due to age. My blood sugars aren’t always perfect but I’m lucky in that I have physical responses to highs and lows that make me really want to keep between 4.8 and 7.5. Always have done, and the new tech makes it very much easier. I wouldn’t have lasted this long without the NHS, nor would a great many of us. I become dangerously angry at the way they’ve been undervalued, insufficiently protected, a resource to be sold, disposable . . . [/QUOTE]
