I am a student and a type 1 Diabetic

Hello everyone. My name is Emma. I have been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes for about 10 years.

My parents just are normal workers in a factory, but they give me more love and care. I love them.

They got me a Dexcom, but it is so expensive and the alarm is not very well sometimes, so my dad changed from Dexcom to the Abbott Freestyle Libre.

My friend’s gift to me was the MiaoMiao Smart Libre Reader. My life has an amazing change since then. I don't need to scan the Libre frequently to get my blood sugars.

MiaoMiao can transfer data from Libre to my phone even my watch every 5 mins.. So cool.

What's more, when I sleep at night, miaomiao can give me alarms when high or low. My parents also can monitor my blood sugars when I’m in school. I have used miaomiao about one year. It is an amazing device— small body, large power. I hope everyone like me can have an easy and relaxing normal Libre. I love my parents, my friends. I love everyone who have diabetes.

Hi Emma

Thanks for this post. I've thoguht about trying miaomiao for a while with my Libre. I think I'll order one and give it a go. I like the sound of the high and low alarm, especially as I go low quite often at night when I am asleep.
