My son is using Medtronic MiniMed pump. He is doing great so far. He's had it for three years now and one of his Doctors said that we need to upgrade. Is there something wrong with the pump or is it a "life" of the pump issue? If anyone can help me…

A little about My Family and me.

I am a 31 year old that is married to Patrick and we have two kids. Dylan 12 years old has Type 1 Diabetes and Alexis 9 years old. Dylan was diagnosed August 23, 2003 the day after my 26th birthday. I really didn't know how to react. I was scared and upset. I was putting blame on myself. As I was being a total mess, my son is taking it as if nothing was wrong. He was acting like an adult when the adults were acting like kids. I was alone at the time. My husband was a truck driver at the time and… Continue

good luck ...and just relax... look at me from the age of 13 to today... 61..... if i can do it anyone can do it... live life with a smile.... remember there are worse things out there... then being a diabetic... be positive..

We have tried getting his school involved as well as the "very little" town we live in and not been successful. He (as of today) has not raised a penny. We need suggestions. The walk is in May and we don't have anything. We need your help. My son also is trying to raise money to go to a camp here in Oklahoma that is in July. The camp costs $550.00 per child to go for one week. We have $100.00 so far. I really need someones help that is good at raising money with very little resources.
Thank you for listening and for anyone willing to help.

Thank you,
Crystal
