Chase's Insulin Pump :)

Tomorrow is the day we order Chase's insulin pump. We decided to go with the Medtronic Minimed Paradigm Revel system (in blue lol). It includes the pump itself plus it has an integrated continuous glucose monitor (cgm). We are also going to start with the Sure-T infusion set. I am so excited and ready for this change, though I am a bit nervous. Mainly because everyone says it's like being diagnosed with diabetes all over again :/ Below are some videos about the system we will be using for anyone who is curious. The first is an instruction video for the infusion set we are going to use, the second is on the cgm, and the third show what we would do every other day with changing his infusion sets and reservoirs.
