Hi all. My name is Richard nickname Softie. I am a type 1 Diabetic. at the ripe old age of 44. I was diagnosed at the age of 13, after a road traffic accident, I was a part time milkman.I am now on an insulin pump, and have been since September 2013. My diabetes has drastically changed for the better.
