Oh, you had asked about my visit to the IDC. I haven't blogged about it yet, obviously, but I may still. I went and I was far from impressed. They do not accept weekly faxed sugars. As far as I'm concerned, if I don't have weekly management, it won't work for me as I want more intensive management rather than less. Anyhow, I decided not to go back and I'm going to try and make it work at my doctor here in saint cloud. Less of a drive, and I can fax in weekly sugars.
I have had Type 1 diabetes since 1974. In August of 2010, I endured a life-threatening health crisis resulting in acute kidney failure. I started dialysis in October, 2010 and it's was the biggest challenge of my life.
Then, on January 12, 2012, I was told by my nephrologist that my labs had improved to the point where I no longer needed the treatments. It has been the biggest joy of my life.
The support and love sent my way by the diabetes online community has been incredible.

Yay! I'm glad to see that she's going to share more of herself with us!
She (like you) has a lot of stuff to share with us, and I'm sure that (like your stuff) it will be interesting, inspiring, and helpful!
