I can eat at anytime of the day I am a traveling clock I am also a traveling flash light, which is pretty convenient at night time
My whole life runs on only AA batteries I get to choose from pink, blue, or grey infusion sites I have the choice of wearing a sensor that monitors my blood sugar My insulin pump does the math for me I don’t have to stop what I am doing to do a shot I don’t have to carry anything with me besides my meter I don’t have to poke myself with shots every time I eat a meal, snack, or even just a piece of candy I only have to change my site every three days
My pump is my favorite color, blue!
If I can’t remember if I dosed for my food, I can look in my history (which is pretty helpful for how forgetful I am!)

How long have you had a pump? We are wanting to look into one for my husband. This would be easier if his doctor quit rescheduling him. 🙂

I have had the pump since I was 8! I got it 9 months after being diagnosed because my mom fought and fought for it and kept my sugar under control! I love it so much and would not go back to shots for anything! I am lucky enough to have good insurance that covers it! I have the animas, I had minimed for a couple years but it did not work out for me like Animas has! But I know a lot of people who have minimed and love it!

I just checked his secondary insurance and they cover the pump! He likely would have little or no out of pocket costs. We are definitely going to look this!
