I live in Alaska but only for two more months, then it’s HELLO FLORIDA! YES! My dream since growing up in Houston, Texas has been to be closer to Cape Canaveral! My bones will thaw out for the first time in nearly 40 years, and I can watch launches in person. I am a mom, sister, friend, widow and cultural anthropologist and hobby historian.

I’m an avid spacenut, spending most of my time reading and writing about SpaceX, Blue Origin, OneWeb and other companies that once existed only in the minds of science fiction writers but are now happening in our lives! NOW, it’s science, not fiction!

I’m learning on this site, that there are dozens of people who know more about diabetes than the DOCTORS did here in Alaska!! When Medtronics first came out with the materials describing CGM, my “endo” (ha, an internist NOT an endo) told me I was “dreaming” and that no such thing existed. A year later, I had one. Yeah, I don’t trust the medical establishment.
