CJ said… - Thank you all for your kind welcome! I am struggling to get to the acceptance stage with this illness and appreciate all the friends and advice I can get...
Anybody else going to Chicago for Terminus - Harry Potter Conference? It will be my first flight since diagnosis and I am hoping that the airport is not too crazy. Has anybody used the 'Frio' packs before for keeping insulin cool?

MelissaBL said… - I wore a Minimed for 8 years, CJ. If you've never worn a pump before, I do think they're a good company to begin with. They are sleek, trusted, and have like 80% of the market share. But the Omnipod is a fascinating new innovation, too. Have you requested your free pod from them? Insulet sent me one to wear for a few days and a CD with a virtual PDM to play with. I didn't end up choosing them (I now wear a Cozmo), but I am really interested in their future. Check out bernard farrell and amy tenderich's blogs about diabetes technology. They have product reviews and demos. Also, I found this site helpful.

- Hi! I am a mom of two, just diagnosed with lada type 1. I think I am finally ready to choose a pump, but I am having trouble choosing between the Omnipod and the Medtronic. Any thoughts are helpful...
