June 14th Meeting: Open Discussion

____________________________________________________________________________

We must announce, with great sadness, that Laurie Kincaid, a long-time member of the Pump Club, passed away on May 9th. In recent years, Laurie attended our meetings with Daisy, her Diabetes Alert Dog. Laurie helped schedule speakers after John Rodosevich retired from the Pump Club. Laurie worked at a travel agency before taking on, for over a decade, full-time caregiving duties for her parents.

In the past few years, Laurie faced many medical challenges and had the loving support of fellow pumper Patrick Neal and her many good friends. For those of you who would like to write a memorial for Laurie's family, go to www.EverLoved.com. Scroll to the bottom of the home page, click on Browse Memorial, then type Laurie Kincaid in the search box.

All pumpers, companions, and friends welcome!

Don't miss the June 14th meeting of the San Diego Insulin Pumpers via ZOOM.

WHAT:  JUNE 14th meeting

WHEN:  Monday, June 14th, from 6:45 till 9:00pm

TOPIC:  Open Discusion

____________________________________________________________________________

THIS MONTH:  Open Discussion. Bring your questions and concerns to receive answers and support.

____________________________________________________________________________

LAST MONTH: John Walsh had a great presentation on research regarding complications and the treatments and preventative actions people with diabetes can take. A link to John's presentation will be posted on the Pump Club blog soon.

John is working on a new book regarding complications, prevention, and treatments. His presentation was an overview of the book's content. High-glucose levels cause a number of health issues such as cardiac, arterial damage, and loss of kidney function. Oxidation caused by high BGs causes inflammation that, in turn, causes the cellular damage. Controlling blood sugars with greater time-in-range is very important (pumps are a great help to achieve this goal). The main goals for reducing complications are lowering blood sugars, lowering blood pressure to under 120, taking a statin medication, eating a healthy varied diet, and exercising. John recommends a number of supplements to help counteract cellular damage. We will let you know when the presentation link is available.

Check the Pump Club Speaker schedule for 2021 below.

Don't miss the April 12th meeting of the San Diego Insulin Pumpers via ZOOM!

THIS MONTH:  April 12th meeting

WHEN:  Monday, April 12th from 6:45 till 8:00pm

TOPIC:  Open Discussion

THIS MONTH:  Open Discussion We continue to hold our Pumpers meetings via ZOOM in 2021. Bring your questions, issues and comments. For Pumpers having blood sugar or other pump issues, please take a screen shot of your pump/BG issue for sharing with the group.

LAST MONTH: Shores Salter, Omnipod Territory Manager, and Lauren Weiler CDE, Clinical Services Manager, gave a comprehensive presentation of the Omnipod pump. The Omnipod is currently available with the Euros or Dash controller. The 3rd generation Euros uses radio waves and the 4th generation Dash uses Bluetooth technology. To check out an Omnipod contact Shores to request the Promise Program, a 45 day trial. The Omnipod PDM includes the Calorie King for help with carb counting and, with the Dash, can share data with up to 12 people. The Omnipod 5 is expected in the near future and will be partnered with the Dexcom CGM. Our website has the contact information for Shores and Lauren.

After the Omnipod presentation we had a brief open discussion where a very important topic was brought up. When filling out the DMV form do you need to answer YES to the question regarding diabetes and health issues? For a detailed answer check out Kriss Halpern's website: diabetesattorney.net.

Kris is a Type 1 lawyer that has discussed this issue at TCOYD events. On his website, scroll down to the end of his home page and you will find Diabetes and DMV articles. Click on the diabetes and license-renewal article to get a legal description of the circumstances required for answering NO to the Health question you think should require a YES. All the DMV articles are very interesting and helpful.

Check the Pump Club Speaker schedule for 2021 at the bottom of the newsletter. John Walsh is our next speaker on May 10th.
