Diabetics are like everyone else. At the same time, they are very different. However, in living with diabetes the experience of ups and downs is not only figurative but literal. This blog address issues with diabetes,and the mindset that "is" The Joy of Diabetes. I'm not a doctor, nor are the posters. Check with yours before doing anything.

virusssneesss.......

I cant believe i got duped. I fell for the UPS email virus. I had ordered some medical supplies overnighted, and the next day, I happened to get an email allegedly from UPS saying that my delivery was not deliverable. I clicked on it and right as I did, I thought uh oh. I unplugged the internet cable, but alas, too late. A lot of bogus (but pretty darn convincing,microsoft screens kept coming up telling me I had 26 different viruses and my Trend Micro Pc cillin somehow became disabled too. It gummed up my whole system and is currently in the shop being de-bugged and new virus software is being installed. I am not so happy with PCcillin for even letting it in...Oh well, live and learn....dont open any UPS emails is all i can tell you.
I would not have fallen for it had I not been waiting and needing the CGMS sensors to be there that day......

Keep going........Peace, Bob
