I hear stories like this from my peers all the time as well, with hospitalizations from high blood sugar, but also from low blood sugar. I think the real benefit of the automated insulin delivery system that I spoke of is that you're alerted. Let's say you're driving and you're not able to stop and physically prick your finger to test your blood. It alerts you, it wakes you up and it temporarily suspends your insulin. It gives you an alert so that you know you're going low.
Sleeping is one of the biggest problems. You can imagine that you would be terrified to go low in the middle of the night, but so are parents. We hear this quite a bit too. They're worried about their children, who are running around and sleeping. They don't know how they're feeling.
Hospitalization is very traumatic. It's very scary. I can tell you from my perspective, as I said, that after 2016, it took me many years to feel comfortable again. I have heard of diabetics going into seizures as well. All this stuff has a cumulative toll on the person, and of course, as we know, hospitalizations are very expensive.
