I can’t help but take it as a bad sign when the drug company feels like it’s not enough to just send you the drug, so they also start including inspirational messages (which assume that you must be sad).

Image shows an insulin pump screen with glucose readings which are at first going low, down to <50. The insulin pump suspends insulin and I over corrected the low with juice, leading to a high glucose, which the pump automatically treated with a bolus of insulin… leading to another low glucose.
In the fight to stay between the glucose lines, both the algorithm and I are struggling this morning. #typeonediabetes

Thank you, Monja!! It was such a pleasure to meet you, and I loved learning about how sounds impact the patient experience in the hospital. I can’t wait to read about all five senses!

by the time I was dx with type 1 diabetes at age 12, I was underweight because of diabetic ketoacidosis. but I’m sure a cooking class would have helped more than all that insulin, since it’s apparently just behavioral!

My perspective “Into the Valley of the Sick” is out today! I’ve spent a lot of time immersed in philosophical questions about disease while I have enjoyed a reprieve from my own, but the work I do about medicine will always be shaped by my own experience with it, like I share here.

Had a lovely first time attending the AAHM conference and presenting my poster on the entangled histories of the ICD and the Electronic Medical Record! #aahm2025 @aahmhistmed.bsky.social

This slide from Ilana Löwy’s Garrison lecture resonates in the history of medicine, but also across all historical disciplines. #aahm2025
