Stylish Diabetes Accessories and the People Who Love ‘Em

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

I think my customers are simply fabulous! It is their encouraging words, their incredible strength that makes all the struggle, and enormous amount of time I put into my business so worth it. So I thought it would be nice for a change to share some of my most recent feedback with all of the visitors who make their way here.

There may even be a picture or two…Enjoy and if you have any feedback, comments or ‘hello’s’ go ahead and comment :)

customer pictureNow on with the Good Stuff!

****** I got {my bag} in last week and LOVE it.  It fits in my purse for normal day-to-day but came in super handy on Saturday.  I had to travel to NYC for a concert and didn’t want to have my big, bulky bag with me.  I was able to carry all my testing supplies, some glucose tablets,… and my ID and cash!  It was perfect.  Thanks so much for a product that’s sure to stay handy in my life.  I’ll be posting about it on my own blog very soon - www.singlewhitediabetic.com ******* ~Rebecca  {Thank you for your feedback Rebecca}

******I am 32 and just found out last Thanksgiving that I have type 1 Diabetes!  It was such a shock, and when I started to look around for cases and bags to carry my supplies in, I found boring bag after boring bag.  I Googled “stylish diabetic bags” and I came across your site.  I am so glad that I did!  It was refreshing to see that I wasn’t the only one that thought there just had to be something more lively, fun and functional all at the same time!  I am going on my first long trip away from home and have to carry more supplies than normal, and the jet setter couldn’t look to be more perfect :)   Thank you for creating things that are sure to make people smile while dealing with something so tough everyday! Warmest regards,  Ambyr Freeman*******  {Thank you Ambyr for your awesome feedback}

*****I found you when I was googling cases for diabetes. Love what you came up with and wanted something different than the ugly black cases. Karyn  ***** {Thank you Karyn for your comments}

*****Thanks. My doctor actually referred you, here in Boston MA. I was diagnosed with Type 1.5 diabetes or LADA – and so I don’t need a ton of the room for the stuff that people with type 1 need. She told me your carrying cases would be perfect!  Turns out she was right.  Best, Rachael****** {Fabulous Rachael, You & Your Endo are the Bestest}

*****I just love your products!  I don’t know if you are open to suggestions or not, but if you can get one for a demo, you might want to try photographing some of your larger cases with insulin pens. I found your site when looking for cases that would fit my pens.  I  use the Novalog ones from Nova Nordisk. I think they are the largest of the various prefilled pens. I was only able to find one other product besides yours that was long enough, and it is horribly medical-looking. Your products would have real appeal to others in my situation.  Thanks again. I am very excited and can’t wait to get my order. I have a number of diabetic friends, and can’t wait to show them your unique cases.  Kimberly****** { Great suggestions Kimberly..Great feedback thanks}

*****Rickina,

Thank you so much for all your help with my order.  I like the fabric and look forward to receiving my order.  I will refer others to you when ever anyone asks about my beautiful bags. I will be sure to put my name inside as I just lost my last meter while traveling.  So nice talking to you too. Nancy***** (Thank you Nancy}
*****I just received the deluxe bag and bio flips i ordered from you for my daughter and i just wanted to say thank you very much. She was delighted with it, it is such a refreshing change from the ordinary black cases. The packaging and note was very much apprechiated. Thanks again. Philip (The UK)*****  {Thanks Philip, hope your daughter enjoys her case}
*****Hi Rickina
Thank you so much for my bag, I received it today and it was well worth the wait, I love it! I was quite surprised by the size as it was slightly smaller than I was expecting but I think that was because my old one is so big and bulky but its fab and it fits all my bits in perfectly and fits in my many handbags!
Thanks once again and take care.
Suzanna***** {You’re most welcome Suzanna}
