Hi There!

We e-eet again!!  I myself am not a pumper.  However, if it ever happens 
that I do need one, the very first three people I would ever consult with 
are: Diane from Colorado, Veronica Elsea, and my friend Krissy.  Veronica, 
because she is totally blind as am I. Diane, because we've been friends for 
a very, very long time.  And Krissy.  She is a sighted lady but I've worked 
with her for a number of years and she taught me a lot about her pump as she 
learnd to use hers.  She even offered help to me if ever I am recommended 
for one.  Ya gotta go where ya feel safe, ya know.  I trust those three 
ladies implicitly.

Hopefully, they're catching this on the list as I know they're all 
subscribed here.  If not, do you mind if I put a bug in their ear first 
thing in the morning and have them give you a shoutBridgit?  Take care my 
friend and we'll talk soon!  Bern
