[Diabetes-Talk] new member intro

[Alyssa Frierson]

Thank you both for your welcome and introduction messages.

Eileen, what kind of pump do you use? I use an Animas Ping with a
OneTouch Ultra Mini glucose meter. I use my remaining vision to
operate both, but I've always wondered if there is a better, less
visual option. My pump has an audio bolus feature, which is helpful,
but most of the time I use magnification to read my pump's screen.

Thanks.

Alyssa
