Today's topic (sorry, still no good with the linky-linky stuff) is related to all the petitions that have been circulating recently...pretend to write a petition and tell who or what I am writing to, and what I am trying to change, and what experience makes me want this change. So, here goes::
To OneTouch Delica Lancing Device:
You need to change. You house the best lancet to ever pick my sweet girl's little fingers. Before finding these lancets her fingertips were spotted with previously lanced spots. Now I have to look very closely to even see any spots at all. It is super skinny and inflicts almost no pain, and even on a "1" setting it provides a nice droplet of blood to fill the partnering OneTouch Ultra Blue test strip. You, however, Lancing Device, are not worthy to hold such a wonder. You feel cheap in my hands. You are an odd shape, causing me to drop you. And when you are dropped onto my hard tile floor, your twist-on cap comes flying off, never to hold well to the main part of the device again. You are truly awful, and I can't believe you come from the same company as your marvelous lancets. I'll continue to use you...out of necessity, but I grumble each time I do.
I agree, the Delica does feel weird and easy to drop. Maybe it needs some "grip no-slip" stuff on it. You could try fabric paint, some people do that to make their own "grippy" socks. I like how delicate it is but have fallen in love with the AccuChek FastClix for ease of changing lancet without touching/dealing with a needle! (I couldn't figure out how the Multiclix worked until someone else showed me, still prefer the FastClix.)
