The doctor said yes!!!!!!!!!!!

By JennyO2216 Tuesday, April 13, 2010

Yesterday i went to the Childrens Hospital LA i go there every three months.  He asked like always if we had any questions. So i said yes and then i told him that i've beens wanting a pump for a while.  I thought that he was going to try to stall and be like " why you don't need it, it's not that important."  But he just said yeah you can have the pump you deserve it. I was so surprised that he said it like that.  Ok so my family has been saying that i have been in a bad mood lately i don't think so but after the doctor that i could have the pump i was so happy! I think i was smiling the whole way. O h by the way the medtronic company called today tell us that they got the request for the pump and that hopefully someone that is a financial specialist or someone from the insurance would call make an appointment or just throught the phone. I thought it would take a long time before i heard from a insulin pump company. I just cant believe it i'm so excited about it! (ok you can say i'm obsesed about the pump) Well everyone take care of your diabetes.

Hey!

 

That is great great news.  The pump requires a lot of training (classes, etc), but it is totally worth it.  Hang in there through all of that. 

 

Be patient with yourself when you get it- you'll be learning a lot in the beginning.  Keep us updated though! and congrats!
