  How many people in your immediate family — your parents, siblings, or spouse — live with type one diabetes?
  I am the only one with T1D, but 75% of my immediate family have autoimmune issues.

  Honestly anyone living with you , you're the only one, lives with diabetes. Kinda vague on the "living" term.

  How many times in 2023 did you have an appointment with a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist?
  Been at this for 40 years now. Not much a CDE can teach me at this point. More the reverse, actually.

  Put yourself in their shoes, after you are taken care of. Offer to leave early if it helps them catch up. Or talk to them about sports, weather or kids to give them a break from their daily grind of explaining fried potato products don't count as a vegetable.

  After 20+ years as a Type I, my appointments are with my endo, where I end up educating him on the latest research. Most endo's patient population is almost exclusively Type 2 and are not as plugged into Type 1

  If you have ever had extra supplies from a device, you no longer use, what did you do with those extra supplies? (Check all that apply)
  First and foremost, please don't trash anything extra you may have! Find an outlet, may not be FDA sanctioned, but someone somewhere can use your extra supplies! I've built up a small backup from replacements for my own use (CGM sensors/pods that went bad). However, I'd tried Lyumjev (didn't work out) plus had a couple of extra glucose meters, test strips, lancets, and carriers that I donated to an org intended for help to Ukraine. Hopefully, it helps kids/adults in need. I served in the military overseas and saw directly how great the need can be, both peace and war environments. If you have extra, please find an outlet for insulin, meters, test strips, et al...whether here at home or overseas...please don't trash the stuff!

  Kept some, gave some away, and, after a while, tossed out the old supplies I had kept.

  The only extra I have had was G6 over patches when I switched to G7. I gave them to someone using G6.

  I have a support group for type 1 women only and if someone in our group needs something we let the facilitator know and she keeps track of who might need supplies or have extra. you cannot advertise prescription items online for free or Facebook. may restrict you. so beware of that.

  I rarely have extra supplies but when I do, I give them to my two grandsons who have T1 diabetes.

  I did donate a bunch of extra test strips once (to endo's office), but wish I could figure out what to do with old Omnipods. I ended up with 3 extra boxes when they switched me to the new system a few months ago, but none of the usual places want them/can take them. I hate to throw them away knowing how much they cost. (Thankfully I only paid the co-pay, but still it hurts to see them wasted.)

  If you’ve ever used a connected insulin pen (also known as a “smart pen”), what was your experience like? Tell us more in the comments! A “smart pen” connected insulin pens can offer extra technology with the simplicity of injections, like tracking the timing and dose of insulin, tracking insulin-on-board, and calculating insulin doses based on carbohydrate entries.
  I like Lyumjev too! Works faster for me.
