A blunt question: if your medication ran out, how long would you realistically last?
Not the movie version. The real math—counting pills, stretching doses, guessing how far you'd get.
I ran that math after my Type 2 diagnosis—and spent years watching the genre overlook people like me. Chronic illness is usually a death sentence or a disposable plot device.

A Tuesday question worth sitting with: if your medication supply ran out, how long would you realistically last?
For diabetics like me, it's a count of days. For many others, weeks. For some, the supply is the deadline.
That uncomfortable math is why I wrote yesterday's post on chronic illness in apocalyptic fiction—and why my latest novel opens with a man hunting for insulin as his blood sugar climbs. No miracles, no easy outs.

New on the blog: "Finding Diabetes in Post-Apocalyptic Fiction."
I've loved apocalyptic fiction for decades, but as a diabetic, I've looked for myself in the genre and rarely find it. Chronic illness is usually a death sentence or a disposable plot device. In this post, I dig into that gap—and how my novel Have Yourself a Post-Apocalyptic Christmas fills it.

New post, hot off the press: "What Happens After the Pharmacy Runs Dry: Finding Diabetes in Post-Apocalyptic Fiction."
I've been a fan of the genre since Romero's dead trilogy, but as a diabetic, I've spent decades watching the genre overlook people like me. In this post I talk about why that absence matters, the short film Type 1 and its gut-punch ending, and why the hero of Have Yourself a Post-Apocalyptic Christmas remains a diabetic to the very end—no deus ex machina allowed.

The Open Insulin Project
"We’re a team of biohackers with a variety of backgrounds, and skills, and relationships to insulin and diabetes from many cities and countries around the world, including Oakland, California; Baltimore, Maryland; and Paris, France. We’re working to develop the first practical, small-scale, community-centered model for insulin production to make insulin accessible to all. We are working towards the goal of communities in need having local sources of safe, affordable, high-quality insulin, and where diabetics and their communities can own and govern the organizations that produce the medicine they depend on to survive."

Das Kind mit Diabetes hat seine erste Geburtstagsparty seit der Diagnose hinter sich. Mit Baden und Schokokuchen und allem, was zu einer Übernachtungsparty dazugehört.
Alles ist gut gelaufen. Einmal hoher BZ spät abends hat das Kind selbstständig geregelt. Heute Morgen war die TIR zwar runter auf 27%, aber wir nehmen das mal nicht zu schwer - und inzwischen sieht es deutlich besser aus.

Until the American Diabetes Association locates its spine, DO NOT DONATE TO THEM. Signed --A Diabetic
"The boycott letter has already received hundreds of signatures, Steven Kahn, professor of medicine at the University of Washington, told Fierce, including “former presidents of the association, major prize winners, award winners of the association [and] people who are leaders in international diabetes.”
Kahn was one of the five ADA members forcibly removed from the annual conference in New Orleans this year after distributing an editorial criticizing the Trump administration’s cuts to federal science spending. Kahn, who is also editor-in-chief of Diabetes Care, was lead author of that editorial."

Here’s why it’s important that #autism is considered a disability. When I applied for both #PWD and the #DTC when I became an adult, only PWD approved me and the DTC rejected me, as they said being autistic is not a disability despite the fact it very much is a disability to me, as it can make communicating challenging for me. Fast forward 8 years later, and I was diagnosed as a type 1 #diabetic, which the DTC considers as automatic approval criteria, so I applied again and this time, I got approved. The thing is, while #diabetes can be a disability for many especially with difficult to control #glucose as well as the financial cost with all the supplies and #insulin needed to manage it, I’ve not found it anywhere near as disabling to me yet compared to being autistic. So if #type1diabetes automatically gets you on the DTC, why is being #autistic not considered a disability despite the fact it’s prevented me from getting a job to financially support myself? This is very much why I am against it when advocates claim autism isn’t a disability, or when people try to replace the term with something like “#diverseabilities”. Because a #disability is after all something that prevents you from doing something, and the term reflects that accurately. #disabled

Albert Heijn wil ons nog voor #Kerst ziek en/of dood hebben denk ik.
Zieke humor trouwens, om een herbivore hamster zakjes met eetbaar dierenleed aan te late prijzen.
