This past Saturday marked 25 years with type 1, for me. I'd like you all to know that I celebrated with cupcakes and wine. :)
I also got copies of my medical records from when I was diagnosed, and plan to submit them to the Joslin Diabetes Center for the 25-year certificate.
Happy diaversary to me!
Here's hoping for 25 more glorious years!
Thanks! :)
Congratulations! Today is my 3 year Diaversary! To be honest, it kind of feels like it's been forever. I can't imagine 25 years, although I know I'll see it one day!
A T1 soldier for 25 years; God Bless! I hope you had a wonderful day! I didnt know they gave out certificates, thats really nice too :)
Way to go Kim!! You are a winner. Keep up the good work.

Not only do they award certificates for 25 years, they also award a bronze medal for 50 years. There will be a meeting of 50-Year Medalists in Boston on June 3-4, 2011. I have heard that around 100 medalists have made reservations to attend. So, you all have something to look forward to in future years.
