@JesterJum Tell me your American without telling me your American... countries with socialised healthcare have been doing this for decades!

@TRobinsonNewEra @albagubrathalba Who the fuck are you to tell us what we stand for?

With new CGMs arriving — and many not sharing data — we risk shaking what makes CGM powerful: accuracy & trust.

70% TIR must mean the same across devices.
We need global standards so the CGM data that predicts health today remains true tomorrow.

@Kes_t1D_SW I don't believe the name should be changed. Also t2 is not always diet and lifestyle related.

@triggersbroom17 Sadly there were many before Lyla. My own daughter nearly died 8 years ago after us being dismissed 3 times by gp and me as an "anxious mother". She was admitted with ketones of 12, yes 12! Luckily survived. I was later told GPS don't finger prickn kids as its "not nice".

Let's make this happen. 💙

I’ve just found out been selected to be a nominee for a Quality In Care “The People’s Award”.

I can’t believe it. All I’m doing is fighting for our daughter and for the Type 1 Diabetes Community, Diagnosed or Undiagnosed. But I’m honoured to be considered. If Lyla’s Law gains more exposure, I’m all for it.

@parthaskar In all seriousness your one of the few things that keeps me in this cesspit.

[Caroline Held @CarolineRuby_T1]

@Kes_t1D_SW I know it's stressful seeing numbers but perfection isn't a normal number. It's only because you checked you think 0.1 is an issue. Most people sit around that. Hope you feel better soon x

[Caroline Held @CarolineRuby_T1]

@AdnanHussainMP Many congratulations. Don't let them ruin it for you.

[Caroline Held @CarolineRuby_T1]

Loving my new pump but not loving consumables out of stock long term! That's acceptable for a pair of trainers, not what you need to make your insulin pump work 😏 what are @DiabetesScot @DiabetesUK and @ypsomed doing about the supply and demand issues?

@elonmusk No your still on my feed

@Kes_t1D_SW @flippper1 @MarcLungley Is even wow when they all you what your child ate when they weren't with you lol

@Kes_t1D_SW @Kerr21Kerr @diabetes_chat @DSNforumUK R doesn't get covid vaccine any more though she does still get flu spray at school. Personally think good hands hygiene best way to avoid both.

@TRobinsonNewEra Wait so you don't think countries should control their own borders?
