Move to closed loop pump
Since Eddie’s switched to a closed loop pump four months ago, things have got better, as the insulin automatically adjusts every few minutes according to his blood sugar levels. Before we could be up some nights every two hours giving insulin or treating low blood sugars. We are so glad that the NICE guidelines now stipulate closed loop systems for type 1, and we hope these can be rolled out as quickly as possible.
Although the technology is amazing it’s not a cure. The walk for me is raising money to find a cure. We’re getting closer all the time. Imagine a day where there is a cure; wouldn’t that be the best day.
