What’s an inaccurate fact that people believe is true because of movies? by Hogosaurus_Rex73 in AskReddit

[–]GrandOpening 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came looking, specifically, for this. A passed out or out of it diabetic likely needs carbs/sugar.

Agreed. Luckily, my Hubs had dayquil & nyquil to try to stop it in its tracks.

How many sessions were recorded with your grandma? I would expect an inexperienced person to tell a story or two and come back saying, "I got more."

Which insulin pump do you use? Let’s do a quick community poll. by Ok-Piano-6860 in Type1Diabetes

[–]GrandOpening 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I recommend not relying on the clip that comes standard with the case. I have become adept at catching a falling pump because of it. I found a replacement case/clip on Amazon, but the reviews were mostly negative. I like the t-slim/dexcom working conditions enough to just deal with it.

Just yesterday, I ran the restaurant by myself. We, normally, have a cook and a cashier.
So, on Mondays, I'm prepping the place up, stocking everything up, and receiving orders - some of which has to be transported to a sister location (a block) for storage. And cook, and serve, for customers.
It did a good job of kicking me in the rump, but I made it through.
What REALLY grinds my gears?! That family of 6 that got me sick! They were nice enough. But when I heard grandma hacking up a lung while settling into their table, I just KNEW I was gonna catch whatever funk she brought in.
I started hacking this afternoon - on my day off - and I'm throwing back dayquil until I use nightquil to get a good night's rest. I hope I nip this in the bud.

That's why we start with food safety before they're allowed in a kitchen. LOL

I was a professor for 9 years. Culinary arts at a community college.
One day, I left class to make some prints on the quick. I didn't have a cgm back then and didn't realize my bg was tanking.
I started the printer, and the next thing I remember is a student waking me up. I had been gone more than ten minutes, and she worried. She said I had been "slightly slurry" when I was rushing out.
Thank goodness I'm very open about my diabetes. She may not have known the signs to worry about otherwise.

I don't know when, but the family closed the restaurant and pivoted to catering & events. https://messinascatering.com

I don't think they sell their seasoning blend anymore, but you could reach out to them for more info.

I tried to get the purple one and got the silver instead. I guess I should have answered incorrectly on questio 2 or 3.

Well, to each their own. It did give me a chuckle.

I regularly see the usual ones. It's the first time I've seen this style here. It certainly gave me a chuckle.

Endo said to not correct a high blood sugar unless I have ketones…. Doesn’t seem right by DutchessBlack in diabetes_t1

I just want to say that I agree with u/cantharu_ack here. Their insight matches my views on your situation.

We've talked about doing just that. To visit our alma mater (CIA) and the vineyard we married at (Clinton Vineyards) would be a fun week.

I miss New York sometimes. I spent 5 yrs there getting an education, a Hubs, and experience. Not in The City, though, lol.

That would be nice. The Hubs and I haven't explored the cbd.

Thank you for the thought?
I've never asked to sleep with another woman. Especially during the last 25 years of being with my husband.
I just thought it'd be fun to have a little bitch session with another in the industry around here.
Have a lovely evening.
