We Have The Funding For An Inulin Pump YIPEE!!!!!!

After having a visit with Diabetic nurses we ahve been told that the PCT are going to let Rebekah have an insulin pump. We have to say a very special thank you to my very good friend Angela Allison who has been a tower of strength, she kept us focused and helped to write letters and emails when we felt like giving up.
So we are just waiting now to get the ball rolling.
We also had a visit to the hospital on the 16th October Rebekah had a chest infection and her sugars had gone up to 30, thankfully after a night in hospital she was allowed home on antibiotics.
It still amazes me that a lot of people don't understand that being Type 1 Diabetic it is not just about the insulin it effects eveything your immune system when your ill your eyes, your feet, need I go on.

HAVE A LOVELY CHRISTMAS I HOPE TYPE 1 DIABETES BEHAVES IT'S SELF
