Most Priced Possessions
On my way back to my desk from a conference room on the other side of the building, the fire alarm goes off.
I walked alongside people passing exit door after exit door till I was back at my desk.
There was no smell of smoke nor did I see flames.
Was it a test, a drill?
Maybe, Maybe not
At that moment all I could think about was my supplies…… sitting on my desk.
I needed to get my supplies out of danger.
It is strange how I have come to see my diabetes management supplies as an extension of myself, thus needing to be saved.
I would most likely go for the same thing. For us, those really ARE the most important things. It’s kind of sad actually but at least it means we are on top of it!

I have the same lancet!
My supplies are also always with me… Also feel pretty naked and lost without it.
