Sharps box

It is a bit of a sad day when you have to get one of these, but given that my mother has been diabetic for nearly 50 years now it is not surprising I now have one.

I also have a large box of needles and some "pens" of insulin. They are quite cunning - disposable pens with 300 units of insulin pre-filled. Dial up the dose, fit a disposable needle, close your eyes, grit your teeth, and push the button... Something like that anyway...

I get my training on this next week when I start daily injections.

Ho hum...
