Nils has a great piece on changing the view of folks with "Bat Belts." Nils is a fellow diabetic, unfortunately a new one (October), and believes that we can usher in a new "Diabetes Chic" movement!
尼尔斯(Nils)用“蝙蝠腰带”(Bat Belts)改变了人们的看法。 尼尔斯是一位糖尿病患者,很不幸,这是一个新的糖尿病患者(十月),并且相信我们可以迎来新的“糖尿病时尚”运动!
"Even if diabetes doesn’t take off as an alternative lifestyle, I believe we can revamp its image. Here’s a portfolio I’m submitting to modeling agencies. The first shot evokes the mobile professional carrying his glucose meter and insulin delivery equipment in a stylish neoprene hip case. Unfortunately, I already tote around a Pocket PC and collapsable keyboard, so the hipster effect is somewhat diminished, as the second shot reveals."
“即使不能将糖尿病作为一种替代生活方式,我相信我们也可以改变它的形象。这是我正在提交给模特经纪公司的投资组合。第一枪唤起了移动专业人员携带他的血糖仪和胰岛素输送设备时尚的氯丁橡胶护盖。不幸的是,我已经在Pocket PC和可折叠键盘周围随身携带了,因此,如第二张照片所示,时髦效果有所减弱。”

I think that a bat-belt-chic movement is in order. Perhaps it will start with a Solar Powered Geek vest, like Patrick's? Is there a geek diabetic version with a cooler for insulin?
我认为这是一种蝙蝠皮带时髦的运动。 也许它将以帕特里克(Patrick)的太阳能极客背心开始? 有没有带胰岛素冷却器的极客糖尿病版本?
