There are SO many ways to keep your pump Hid-In!

I do love a green pie chart! My sugar levels very literally shape my mood for the whole day, good sugars, happy day, rubbish levels and a grumpy cloud hangs over me, you know what I mean? #T1DMeToo (the peak at the end is where I forgot to bolus for the few spoons of honeyed porridge I ate whilst showing my toddler how “yummy” it was!) #type1life #freestylelibre #type1diabetes #t1d #happyday #t1warrior #type1problems
This is why, no matter what the weather, I’m so delighted to be walking to work! This was the scene at Mile End tube as I walked past to the canal and through the park to my studio #freelance #type1active #type1life #t1dlookslikeme #type1diabetes #commute #londonlife #parklife #canal

At Hid-In we parcel pump accessories (for ladies) as if we were wrapping lovely lingerie. Why? Because we believe that pump accessories should be more at home in your lingerie drawer than your medicine cabinet. They should look and feel great rather than like medical aids. Diabetes is a condition that we have to live with, but a pump is a positive lifestyle choice and the way that we wear it should reflect this. #t1dlookslikeme #t1d #type1diabetes #type1life
A Window into my Type 1 world - #T1MeToo Here’s a short story about one way diabetes tripped me up today, you will have many similar ones. I’m sharing with fellow T1’s so we can all breathe a collective sigh of “me too”. Walking to work I got a calibration request from the Spike app. When I tried to do a BG test my handset wouldn’t turn on. I took out and reinserted the batteries, still walking, but no joy, dead. After a cursory rummage for spare batts I got exasperated and emptied the contents of my Mary Poppins/ Type 1 tardis of a handbag onto the nearest flat surface, a fallen tree. Finally I found the batteries (amidst glitter, Christmas cracker gifts, bloodsticks, fruit pastilles and art materials) and got a warning to remove again. I had already pricked my finger so tried and do this whilst balancing a blood-dot on my finger to save a second stabbing. It didn’t work. Eventually the handset turned on and in my haste I applied the second sample too soon, wasted the stick (which I hate) and had to start again with a new one. Third attempt, now my fingers were cold and it took several goes. Poor little pinkies. I repacked up my handbag and set off again on my merry way. The fact that my BS was uncharacteristically in range almost totally made up for the inconvenience, bad BS at this point would have really ruined my morning. It's amazing the difference to my mood that these numbers make. The one consolation in all of this is that I know I am not alone. You all know what it's like! These mini dramas are happening to us in parks and playgrounds, workplaces and washrooms, classrooms and kitchens across the world right now. Keeping blood sugars in range a tedious and time consuming dance and it involves remembering so many bits, bobs, and small parts. And the best you can hope for with all this effort, all these hiccups and hurdles, beeps, blips and pharmacy trips is 5.4... which fellow humans can achieve by doing nothing at all! To make us all feel better I propose we start a #T1MeToo movement! We can use it to share stories/photos with our T1 community! What do you think? #t1d #type1life #t1dlookslikeme #type1diabetes #freestylelibre #type1warrior
Just got my Libre back after a spell off it over Christmas (a supply issue not a choice) I hadn’t realised how far off the rails I have been. I’m finding my graphs pretty demoralising. Without the window into my blood sugar ups and downs that the Libre, Spike app and MioaMioa offer I have got into some bad habits. Constant Christmas snacking and cupboards still well stocked with shortbread, crackers and chocolate hasn’t helped. I’ve got into the bad habit of grazing and forgetting to bolus... not good when grazing on left over quality street options. Anyone else struggling to get back BS control after the festivities? #t1d #type1diabetes #type1life #freestylelibre #t1dlookslikeme #insulinpump
