Awesome news, enjoy the day and don't worry, you will be fine. The pump really is a great bit of kit and helps control the uncontrollable!!

I've had type 1 for 27 years, and over the last few years, have bed struggling with the dawn rise. I was offered a pump, but me being me decided I could deal with it my own way... I've now been on the Medtronic 640g for 6 months now, and I can tell you, its the best thing I have ever done for my diabetes and me. You will love it. Good luck.
