[QUOTE="Niamh's Mum, post: 346508, member: 24269"] Hi, We also felt very wary when my daughter was given the ok to go on the pump. She was 12 at the time (18 months ago). Our local hospital that we attend for all appointments didn't have a pump clinic, so we are under dual care with another hospital in a city nearby. We have found it fantastic. I remember being so anxious about everything when Niamh first started but honestly, similarly to when they are first diagnosed, it soons becomes second nature. We had a small problem with the cannula's to begin with and a rep came to visit us, but other than that is has been a learning curve of enormous knowledge :D I promise you in 6 months time you will pat yourself on the back and say 'How well did we do!'.
