| |  Finally.
We FINALLY are getting ready for my son's pump. He's so excited. After a month of fighting with insurance and everybody else we're getting a Minimed. Hehe.
Sorry. I was a little excited. I needed to tell SOMEONE that would understand. Okay, back to what you were doing.

Sorry. I was a little excited. I needed to tell SOMEONE that would understand. Okay, back to what you were doing. | Congrats on winning the "war" with insurance! I had to make about 16 phone calls on behalf of my wife, to get her recent pump replacement approved by Blue Cross. It took me only 1 phone call to get mine, a couple months later. Go figure.
I fully understand your excitement. I remember vividly the day my pump arrived, in 1996. It was like 100 Christmases all rolled into one moment. |
