Myabetic. Pretty much anything from this website is ideal. They have cases for a variety of your diabetes needs, cooling pouches for those of us on injections so we can keep our insulin cool, T-shirts, Dexcom accessories, and Tandem accessories. I have the Banting wallet in purple (which I absolutely love) and the Marie Diabetes mini Crossbody in black which is basically a wallet and the Banting combined for the perfect night-out purse.

Prikkedief. This is a company based in the Netherlands, but their diabetes supplies are seriously to die for. They have clutches (which are basically the same as Myabetic’s clutches) and wallets, jewelry, pump and sensor covers, clothes, and posters! I recently ordered the Medtronic 630G gold sparkle pump cover and I cannot wait until it comes in the mail! If it's not in English at first, go down to the very bottom of the website to choose the right language.

Etsy. This website is my go-to for anything crafty, but I had no idea they had so many awesome diabetes accessories! I just ordered this super cute thigh band for my pump, and I am hoping to get this running belt as well (I mean, I don’t run, but if I ever want to run with my pump and some glucose tabs, I can). They have jewelry, clothes, bags, journals, stickers, pins, and so, so much more. All you do is search “diabetes,” “type one diabetes,” or “diabetic accessories” and you’ll get hundreds of hits on super cute, fashionable, and handmade items that any diabetic will no doubt love.

Lauren’s Hope.This company has medical ID jewelry that is just the absolute cutest. They have jewelry for men, women, and kids, and they have so many different styles suited for all kinds of different activities. Seriously, just shop around on this website for a bit and fill up that shopping cart because not only will these cute little accessories save your outfit, but they’ll save your life, too.

Journals. We all know how constantly busy and hectic a diabetic’s life is, so spoil them with a nice planner to keep them up to date with appointments and to help them get on a schedule to reduce the stress in their life. This website has some fantastic ideas for planners for all sorts of people, depending on their preferences. Personally, this one is a total dream for me, and the fact that I can choose which size and how the pages look is a big plus for me.

Pretty much anything cute and stylish, yet also functional, will be much appreciated from the diabetic in your life. Go on and impress them with your thoughtfulness!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
