@v8oholic I borrowed a Jean Michel Jarre LP off a friend at college, left it in my car & got back after my day to find it seriously sun warped. Took it home & got Mum to try & iron it flat again with a tea towel! It didn't work so I bought him a replacement, love Jean Michel Jarre ✅

@diabetes_chat The Automated Insulin Delivery book by Dana M Lewis. A game changer. In 2018 after 34 years of living with T1D, this helped to rewrite my diabetes management plan. Massively improving my day to day living with T1D. Peer support too. A problem shared is a problem halved 🙌🙏😍

The open source link online with the AAPS platform details. This is the link Shaun used to build his closed loop system. We are not healthcare professionals and we recommed you speaking to your own diabetes team about your own diabetes care & management.

@diabetes_chat This book is very interesting & explains how closed loop systems were first developed, to help people with type 1 diabetes. Dana Lewis's - Automated Insulin Delivery book.

Discussing the 4 Ts of #T1D #type1diabetes on @BBCBreakfast this morning with @sallynugent & @jonkay01 representing @BT1DUK Thirst, Toilet, Tired, Thin - if you or loved one have any of those symptoms seek medical advice. Ask Could it be type 1 #gbdoc Knowing symptoms saves lives

The health care system & society don't understand the criticality T1D. We're screening & catching this early for better health yet the 🌍 is missing Lyla & many others. I tested Johnny thankfully, it took many days to convince HCPs to do a HbA1c. #TestOneDrop works. #LylasLaw
