A little closer!

I can't explain how excited I am right now!  I just had an Animas Pump Rep call me!  I submitted the paperwork Friday before I left work to get the ball rolling and didn't really expect to hear anything till the end of the week.

I'm still not holding my breath, but he said every thing looked good so far!  They have to check with the insurance company about a program to see if we are enrolled, and they have paperwork that has been submitted to the Endo's office. 

That's where I'm not holding my breath.  I've not had to make as many phone calls to the Endo's office over the entire 2 1/2 years since Ellee was diagnosed as I have in the past 3 months dealing with this insulin pump.  The pump rep told me that he had to wait to hear back from the doctor's office, so I briefly explained that if he gets it in a few days, great, but I wouldn't be surprised if Dr. C holds off on it till she sees us on August 22.  I'd love to get into the office with a pump before school starts, but knowing my luck nothing will happen that fast.

Never the less, I am still excited!  I know the first few months will be rough, but I hope that by Thanksgiving or Christmas Ellee will realize how much better this is than our current "Daily Injection Therapy".
