The OmniPod arrives

Tuesday, February 3, 2009 at 3:28PM

Arden’s new insulin pump has arrived. This pump will decrease Arden’s shot frequency from twenty-one times or more every three days down to once every three days!

It should also help keep her blood glucose more stable and allow her to eat more frequently and with much more freedom!

We have an appointment tomorrow at CHOP to attach the OmniPod (with saline, not insulin) so that we can begin a seven day training period. We will begin to use the pump exclusively on February 12th as long as everything progresses according to plan.

You can view the video on our site in a larger format here

and here on YouTube...
