Readers on Lyumjev — burning sites, the twiist "child" insulin model that tames them, and which pumps clear Fiasp — plus a remarkable letter marking 31 years with Type 1: Medtronic, the Instinct sensor, and low-carb finds.
The full week in one place — all six posts from July 12–17, start to finish: the Post #200 announcement, pump failure and preparedness, the teen pump Q&A, Post #200 itself, the doctor-and-rav Shabbos article, and Friday's reader-stories forum.
I handed Post #200 to you and asked for your stories. Twenty arrived — from a four-year-old's own words to a bubby looking back across decades. Here they are.
