Pumps Rule
We had our first A1C since Mariel began pumping. She went from 8.8 to 7.6.

Endo was impressed. I'm in the clouds.

Could not have done it without Frodo (That's what Mariel has named her pump)

It has only been three months but I can't even remember life on MDI - Well more accurately - I can't believe we used to do that. Life is so much more natural - the eating part of it especially.

Congrats to both you and Mariel! Glad to hear the pump is working out so well - it does allow us to take back our lives.

cheers,
