I've only clocked up 42 years so can't respondGreat to read everyone's comments about the bad old days! Brings back so many memories. Still waiting for a response on Twitter from anyone with T1 for 49+ years though - where are they all??
There's SO much I couldn't say in a short blog, but have one question for long termers: did anyone have a metal contraption that looked and worked like a gun? You clicked the syringe into it then fired it into the skin and it went in fast! I actually saw one in the medical museum on the Southbank in London recently! Imagine seeing a museum piece that you've actually owned (and is considered a little barbaric now think!). Made me feel ancient....
