I look forward to hearing from you again soon.
we looked at the omni pod, but thought Michael would lose the remote like he loses everything else! We might switch to something more like that next time, when he is a little bit older. We knew right away we wanted to pump. We have an adult friend who is type 1 since she was 11. She started pumping last year, omni pod, and she loves it. The flexibility with eating is such a joy.
Welcome to tudiabetes and to the parents of kids with type 1 group. It's nice to have you here.
Nice to meet you.
There are plenty of groups that are geared for those who love someone with diabetes too, look for those as well.
So hope to see you around and please grab a seat and a latte and enjoy*
