This is my first time using this site, so I hope i'm responding to the person who asked what did I do for my Tx. anniversary.

Well, the year of my first anniversary, I said to my parents, I want to have a "thankyou " party...I didn't want anything, but I wanted all my parents friends, my sister/brothers' supports , church, work, etc, to come to my parents home, ( as it's much bigger than my home), and had a "thankyou party"..
I had a book to sign, and a scroll that each person received upon entering, and it had thankyou's and sayings on it, then we had a drop in for 4 hours, to say, "thank you for your support and prayers, before, during and after my Tx." We had finger foods, and a huge cake...and people dropped in and the house was filled,....I had teachers from years ago, and people ranging from infant to 86 come....it was a great idea and turned out fantastic...my only gift, (mind you people did bring things), but it was the visitors book, for comments from all....answered prayers and such....many photo's and memories to keep me going for months... hope you have a great anniversary...I don't do anything now...as I have my birth date, my first tx. and my second tx. and there 's too much else to celebrate...I had my time...and now it's time to celebrate others.. (my tx. were in 1992 and 1996) God Bless

I live further north than you do. I am about 40min west of chicago. St. Louis is like a 6 hour drive for me.

Where exactly is Taylorville? I think you might be at the other end of the state from me.

I know what you mean...but along with a TX, I could only imagine having to deal with the shots....hang in there...
If you ever need to vent or questions about diabeties, just let me know.....
Take care,
Troy
