Five years after Tetsu Nakamura's death, efforts to reconstruct Afghanistan are continuing in line with the Japanese doctor's wishes.
Amid the gigantic humanitarian needs in Gaza, aid is outrageously being blocked.
The nightmare is not a crisis of logistics.
Its a crisis of political will and of respect for fundamental principles of international humanitarian law.

La profilassi per l'HIV ad un punto di svolta: la PrEP iniettiva
Giornata mondiale contro l'Aids. Nell'ultimo anno aumentati i contagi ma la prevenzione e le nuove terapie hanno cronicizzato l'infezione

Everyone is a target: A dozen killed waiting for food in Gaza
In Khan Younis, an Israeli air strike targeted a group of Palestinians waiting to receive food from an aid convoy, killing at least 12 people and wounding an unknown number of others.
These people were receiving aid, they were not part of the resistance, they were just getting aid, vegetables. Civilians were targeted, everyone is a target.
Soup Kitchen's Mahmoud was killed this morning by an Iz drone as he headed out to begin his daily routine at Kamal Adwan Hospital.
Known for his unwavering commitment to serving Palestinian civilians, Chef Mahmoud played a critical role in running Gaza Soup Kitchen, which coordinates humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza.
Izs are picking off anyone who provide & so as to increase the death & suffering of Palestinians. A genocidal US-backed regime that must be stopped.
One of the biggest challenges the World Food Programme is facing is over the last three months, weve been without capacity to provide assistance to 1.1 million people.
Weve been facing clear shortages of the assistance were supposed to provide In November, weve only been able to reach 815,000 people. The vast majority of these have received only one-third of the rations theyre supposed to receive.
WFP
Meanwhile, aid into the Strip continues to be blocked by Israel, with no reason given to aid organisations like Oxfam.
You cant read it any other way than its just forbidden as a weapon of war.
A civil car belonging to the World Central Kitchen (WCK) was targeted by an Israeli drone on the Salah al-Din Street in the eastern side of southern Gazas Khan Younis city.
Five civilians were killed, including three of the WCK workers without any prior warning.
One of the victims is the director of the charity kitchens here in the Gaza Strip.

Mutual Aid Request!
My girlfriend is a struggling artisan in BC working multiple part time jobs but struggling to make ends meet due to rising costs, insufficient wages, long covid, and disordered sleep. A postal strike is also affecting many small businesses like hers at this time of year, which they normally rely on to get them through the next few months. Anything to help keep her fed and housed so she can keep working and get through this slump would be so greatly appreciated.

Heute geht es um:
Ich werde wahnsinnig. Die Wahl der richtigen Insulinpumpe. Neues System oder bei der aktuellen bleiben
Vor knapp 3 Wochen bin ich mehr oder weniger komplett aus den Latschen gekippt. Die Firma Tandem hat mich darauf hingewiesen, dass meine ersten 4 Jahre mit meiner Insulinpumpe nun vorber sind. Damit habe ich, um ehrlich zu sein, berhaupt nicht gerechnet. Ich habe immer noch das Gefhl, als htte ich die Pumpe gestern erhalten. Das heit fr mich in erster Linie, dass ich mir Gedanken machen muss, wie es weitergeht.
Was ich komplett vergessen habe, dass man sich 4 Jahre an eine Firma und ein System bindet. Nach den 4 Jahren ist es leider so, dass man bei Problemen keinen Anspruch auf Ersatz hat, sofern das Gert einen Defekt hat. Warum das so ist, wei ich nicht. Die Krankenkasse gewhrt im Rahmen der 4 Jahre sozusagen die komplette bernahme der Kosten bei Garantiefllen.
Das bedeutet fr mich momentan:
Genau hier liegen meine Probleme. Ein Defekt kann immer schnell passieren und dann stehe ich erst einmal komplett ohne Pumpe da. Wieder auf die Pens zurckgehen ist keine Option, da die Lebensqualitt extrem darunter leiden wrde. Schwierig wird es nur, da ich jetzt noch andere Systeme angeboten bekommen habe. Diese haben alle ihre Vor- und Nachteile. Nur was soll ich nehmen
Die Qual der Wahl
Meine Insulinpumpe: Tslim X2 von TandemUm eines gleich vorneweg zu nehmen. Ich bin an sich sehr zufrieden mit dem System, welches ich derzeit nutze. Die Firma Tandem hat mit der Tslim X2 eine tolle Pumpe auf den Markt gebracht. Doch wie bei den meisten Dingen hat sie leider auch ein paar Nachteile. Gravierend finde ich sie zwar nicht, doch dafr umso nerviger. Informationen zu den Konkurrenzprodukten habe ich gengend gesammelt und verglichen. Doch eine Entscheidung habe ich bedauerlicherweise bisher nicht treffen knnen.
Ein groer Vorteil ist und war, dass ich von den mir angebotenen Systemen direkt die meisten ablehnen konnte, da sie mich in keiner Weise angesprochen haben. Sei es durch das Design in Form eines Ziegelsteins oder dem Fehlen von bestimmten Infusionssets. Ohne Stahlkanlen nutze ich selbst keine Pumpe mehr, da die regulren Teflon-Kanlen bei mir immer undicht geworden sind. Schon einmal gut fr mich, da man sich um weniger Punkte Gedanken machen muss.
Leider trifft das nicht fr das letzte System zu.
Tslim X2 oder die MyLife Ypso Pump
MyLife Ypso PumpDie Ypso Pump hat als grtes Argument die CamAPS Untersttzung fr einen sogenannten Closed Loop. Das heit, die Pumpe regelt komplett von allein die Menge an Insulin, die bentigt wird, und korrigiert jede 10 Minuten, falls ntig. Der Algorithmus lernt mit der Zeit dazu und kann, je lnger man ihn nutzt, ohne selbst einzugreifen, immer genauer werden. Dadurch, dass ca. 3 Stunden im Voraus geplant und jede 10 Minuten kontrolliert wird, wird auch der Zielbereich lnger gehalten. Da mein Blutzucker je nach Schicht extrem schwanken kann, wre dies ein Traum. So oft wie der Algorithmus die Insulinabgaben anpasst, kann der Mensch gar nicht mithalten. Geschweige den, sich die Zeit zu nehmen, um alles zu kontrollieren.
Meine Tslim X2 hat zwar auch ein Closed Loop System, welches aber nicht so feinfhlig ist wie die von CamAPS. In meinem Fall wird knapp 30 Minuten in die Zukunft geschaut. Sollte mein Blutzuckerwert einen bestimmten Wert erreichen, wird die Dosierung erhht oder gesenkt. Sollte er komplett aus dem Ruder laufen, wird auch automatisch eine Abschaltung eingeleitet oder einfach Insulin nachgespritzt.
Klingt an sich genau gleich, findet ihr nicht auch
Leider ist das so, dass sich die Pumpe aber nur in bestimmten festgelegten Rahmen bewegt. Dieser wird vom Patienten definiert. Entweder man liegt gut oder komplett falsch. Das System lernt nicht dazu. Es hilft zwar, den Zucker im Rahmen zu halten, aber man muss trotzdem oft nachprfen und justieren. Fairerweise muss man sagen, dass es bei mir seinen Dienst zu 80 % absolut super macht. Ausrutscher gibt es nur, wenn mein Dnermann mir was zu essen gibt. Da hilft kein Algorithmus mehr.
Pro und Kontra
Ein Wechsel klappt natrlich nicht sofort. Ein paar Schulungen werden wieder fllig und vor allem muss man sich berlegen, ob die positiven Dinge meiner momentanen Pumpe der neuen das Wasser reichen knnen. Vielleicht klingt es etwas dmmlich, aber der bessere Algorithmus ist einfach so ein starker Punkt, dass ich nicht wei, ob er mich beim Wechsel wirklich halten wrde. Viele kleine Dinge gibt es, die mich irgendwie nicht berzeugen. Wohlgemerkt, dass ich die nchsten 4 Jahre damit leben msste. Ob ich mchte oder nicht.
Hier ein paar Punkte, die mich derzeit berlegen lassen.
Ich bin unentschlossen
Eigentlich sollte man der Meinung sein, dass die Entscheidung hier recht simpel ist. Leider falsch gedacht. Trotz der greren Menge an Dingen, die mir nicht zusagen, kann ich mich nicht entscheiden. Der Algorithmus der neuen Pumpe ist um einiges anpassbarer und praktischer fr meinen Alltag.
Wie ich mich kenne, wird mir das Negative wahrscheinlich sehr schnell auf den Wecker gehen. Allein bei der Menge an Insulin muss ich jeden zweiten Tag wieder alles frisch machen. Die Zeitersparnis bei der neuen ist zwar dann vorhanden, doch die Hufigkeit des Wechselns nimmt das positive wieder weg.
Jetzt liegt es an mir, was ich mchte. Bin hier tatschlich unentschlossen, da 4 Jahre eine lange Zeit sein knnen, wenn man ein Problem mit seinem aktuellen System hat. Wie ich mich entscheiden werde, ist noch ungewiss. Sobald eine Entscheidung getroffen wurde, gibt es ein kleines Update.
