Hi, my name is Simon Carter, and I've been living with Type-1 diabetes for 24-years,
and my 9-year old also has Type-1 diabetes.
Basically I know what it means to live with diabetes on a daily basis.
I have one single mission in my life and that's to make the lives of diabetes sufferers everywhere
not only easier, but far more affordable too.
The average insulin pump costs almost $8,000 and another $1,000 per year in supplies.
The ManageBGL virtual insulin pump changes all that by giving you all the perks of a
normal insulin pump, but with none of the insane costs.
This is because the information is delivered through your iPhone, Smartphone or tablet.
But the most amazing ability of ManageBGL is that it can PREDICT where blood sugars
will be 4 hours ahead!
For example, ManageBGL predicted my daughter would have a low blood sugar at school, so
I phoned the school to haul her out of the pool. She had a dangerously low blood sugar
level but was unaware of it.
In addition, as parents, we were constantly worried that our child would not be alive
in the morning. ManageBGL gives us confidence to sleep well at night.
And blood sugars, doses and carbs can be automatically shared with parents, medical staff and teachers
in real time.
ManageBGL's coach also studies results in real time, and advises which doses should
be altered, and by how much - not just at the next doctor visit.
Which brings me to why you're watching this video: I want to give you a chance to invest
in not only a fantastic Kickstarter project, but one which will also positively impact
the lives of 380 million diabetics.
We want to take the ManageBGL website to the next level by creating very affordable offline
apps which sync with our online service, providing offline prediction, logging and coaching 24/7/365.
Any extra funds we receive will be used for a clinical trial and regulatory approval so
that doctors and educators can happily recommend ManageBGL.
Your contribution will help make the world a better place.
