About Me

From bad news…

…to an opportunity.

Hey, I’m Gill; welcome to my website.

In June ‘22, at the age of 38 years (and 11 months!) I received a life changing diagnosis.

“Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus”

My pancreas doesn’t work any more.

Join me on my journey, as I solve the problem of my pancreas…

…one prick at a time.


She isn’t Debbie McGee…

.. but I do have a glamorous assistant… my Fiancée Becky.

Known as TeckyBecky, she looks after the admin of this site, and occasionally will write articles.

She also wakes me up in the night when I don’t hear my CGM alarm and feeds me Jelly Babies and Apple Juice.
