FINALLY!!!

When you don't expect a phone call to keep you updated because you know that not everything is in yet, it seems like you get unnecessary updates all the time.  But, when you are anxiously waiting by the phone to hear that you got the final approval, it seems like forever before that call ever comes!

I waited all week and never heard anything.  So finally on Sunday, I shot our Animas rep an email asking if they have heard from the insurance company yet.  I wasn't really expecting to hear anything back, but this afternoon my phone rang and my caller ID showed "Animas Pump Company"!  I didn't get too excited because I expected Nick to be calling to say that he got my email but has not heard from the insurance yet. 

There are times when I love being wrong!  They were calling to say that we have our final approval and we can get everything set up so that they can ship the pump out!  I am beyond excited! 

Ellee seems to finally be on board with this new concept!  She has asked me a few different times about when we'll get it.  I know that it will be a rough first few months, change is always rough, but she is a such a strong person and adapts so well.  Diagnosis was rough and getting use to the shots.  Then we got use to the shots and transitioned over to Pens instead of syringes.  Change is always scary, but some times change is for the better!  We like the pens, but the time has come to move onto the next step in order to get tighter control! 

Now to call the doctors office and set up our next appointment for them so that we can start using this thing!
