I can’t read the “avoid getting Tasered during a low” advice without becoming enraged. How can this be a common event? Are there so many cops out there who have no idea how to evaluate a medical emergency, or can’t be bothered to do so? Scary.

As for the sports bra, check out the RhythmBra at lyonesssportswear.com. A small, local (at least where I’m from) company already has an awesome design–complete with moisture-proofing the pouch! It works for pumps and meters, as well as just cell phones, cards, or keys. After all, fostering invention and supporting the little guys is in the spirit of the week. =)

FYI for those with MedicAlert, you can get a window decal for your car with the symbol and 800 number. Responders would still need to get your member ID from your bracelet/wallet card, but at least it might help avoid the Taser treatment

I would buy one of those steering wheel covers even without the carb strip.
