Ok so writing a book isn't quite what I imagined it would be but I am making progress on it. Not sure just how much detail I want to go into but I figure that out as I go I think because some things that may not seem that big a deal actually end up being quite important further into it.
On a different note, I had someone ask me to give them my wifes insulin infusion pump today which I thought was a bit rich, especially considering they have an above average income. Apparently someone told them I am looking to just give it away, which is true up to a point, but I'd prefer it to go to someone who either couldn't afford to buy one, or to a young child that has not long been diagnosed. The theory being that the sooner they get into good BSL ranges the less long term damage they'll have to live with. Strangely enough though, considering the number of type1 diabetics here in NZ I am yet to find someone that fits that catagory. I guess though I'll find someone in good time, Hopefully not too far from home as I'll need to provide the training on how to use it as well unless I can get support from Medtronic or one of their local suppliers to cover that for free ( or reduced cost )
