Kids With Type 1 Diabetes Like Insulin Pump
Well, it was at least Isreali money they were wasting but has anyone considered filing child abuse charges on the people running the study.
Let’s see, would you rather get a shot every few hours, or would you rather get one every three days.
Let’s see, do you want to eat 6 meals a day, a certain number of carbs every meal, or do you want to eat when you are hungry.
Okay, so you have to carry a few ounce box, and if you are unlucky to do Minimed, you can’t get it wet, but then again that’s still better than several shots a day.

The pump
Animas Corporation – Bringing new life to insulin therapy
This is the pump I decided to go with. The features that I decided were the most important are:
a) non-proprietary insertion sets
b) large reservoir (300 units)
c) smallest adjustability (.05 units)The Cozmos and the Animas have the best in this regard. What pushed me over the edge on the Animas was their EzManager Plus software, as it is supposed to work with the widest range of blood sugar monitors. I’ve got the software and the connector for the Freestyle.
