[QUOTE="hodders, post: 1978797, member: 153476"] Hi Speaking as a type 1 who no matter how hard I try have a roller-coaster of blood sugar readings most days due to life's pressures. And supporting a child with type 1 who has access to all the latest technology which is denied me by the NHS because I am an adult. Don't get me wrong all children in the UK should have access to all the technologies to improve their life but then so should all adults too. I do not have a simpler form of the disease nor is it easier to manage. I have the same disease. Having heard how pump technology will transform the child's life and even out the roller coaster numbers. Until us adults get easier access some of us cannot hope to have less deviation. I understand all the difficulties in financing the NHS but why is there no middle ground to pay a monthly fee for technology if we should wish. It is nhs or pay up front. [/QUOTE]
