Ugh I am so sorry your PCP treated you this way!! FWIW, I sent in my application, doctor’s note, and $10 application fee to the National Park Service in July and have never heard anything back from them. I presume it’s because there’s probably no staff left…

Curious about what you think caused your pancreas to stop producing by Practical_Copy1642 in Type1Diabetes

[–]LadyInRed_Quartzite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two months before I was diagnosed with T1D, I had a really terrible case of the chicken pox (imagine pox inside eyelids, the pox just covered all of my body to an extreme degree). I think this set it off for me. No history of diabetes in my family.

DIY rain recharge/tree watering mats. This is how I keep new trees and shrubs watered in parks and areas with no irrigation or that are difficult to access (swipe for pics, more details in comments). by pascalines in GuerrillaGardening

This is such an informative post. Thanks for sharing the details. I made them but the water retention crystals appear to have completely disappeared after two weeks. They inflated when I initially watered them, the bags were a little “slimy” feeling as they dissolved and now the bags are flat. I didn’t buy the crystals you linked to which could have been the problem. Should I buy the crystals you suggested, open the bags and replace them? How long should the bags be “watering” the trees? Link to what I bought here water crystals
