I'm pumped

I am literally pumped. No, seriously. I am literally connected to a pump. It's craziness! Yet so cool at the same time. I definitely feel a bit like a sick person. I have to disconnect for showers, pool, getting dressed, etc. I even wear when I sleep. Good thing I don't sleep on my stomach.

It's kind of amazing how far modern medicine has come. I mean, it's practically an external pancreas in the size of a pager that fits in my bra. That's quite incredible. So I'm thrilled with it. It's a brilliant computer with all these mathematical equations built in. There's even a computer program that builds reports for study. So it seems this diabetes thing is becoming more maintainable by the day.

No "woe is me." No "woe is me." I just have to keep repeating it over and over again. Now if I can just get through my next doctor appointment on Monday afternoon, which unfortunately is for something else not even related to diabetes, then I might start to think I'll be okay.

It's actually kind of cool. Check it out!
