Why Australians With Type 1 Have It Better

Happy Friday!


I’m in Sydney today for day 2 of Abbott’s Diabetes Exchange event. I’m officially hooked up to the FreeStyle Libre, and I’ll post some observations here in the weeks to come.

In the meantime, you can follow along on Twitter using #DX2Sydney and on my Facebook page here.

Second order of business: I recently wrote a column for Insulin Nation, in response to the ongoing health insurance stories coming out of the US. It’s titled Australians With Type 1 Have an Easier Time With Health Insurance, and you can read it here.

Finally, Diabetes Blog Week kicks off on Monday. I had a great time participating last year, and there’s just such a great sense of community about it. If you’re thinking of starting a blog or adding your voice to our great community, it’s a great time to do so. Head over to bittersweetdiabetes.com to see what it’s all about and to sign up.

Have a great weekend!
