Sophia will be starting Insulin pump therapy in the next few weeks. I'm thinking that it will be good because we won't really have to give her shots anymore. Sometimes, but it will be the exception and not the rule. Instead she will wear a pump that has a tube under her skin and it will deliver the insulin to her body when she needs it. We still have to push buttons on it and tell it how much to give her, but I don't have to give her 10 shots a day. I've heard that it has a learning curve that tends to remind people of when they or there child was initially diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, but that once you get past that, it's a huge improvement over the shots. It's should help her be healthier too because it is able to give much smaller doses or insulin than we are able to give with needles. Right now, she has to have had at least 10 grams of carbs before we can give her any insulin. But if she eats say, 5 her blood sugar will still rise to high levels etc, lots of other way too long explanations of why it will be better with a pump. Anyway, a pump will be good to have once we get the hang of it.

I ordered the pink one, pricey little son a gun, but it's worth it.
