[Diabetes-Talk] AIRA & pump questions

[Veronica Elsea]

Rick, there are quite a few of us on this list who use insulin pumps. Unless
you get a pump that Medtronic no longer markets, it's really tricky. I use
the OmniPod. I am able to rescue myself using the Seeing AI app on my phone.
But it's not for the faint of heart. <grin> But I can use more features on
this pump than I could on the outdated Medtronic so here I'll stay.

Hello Joyce,

I could not find how to get ahold of you off list?

I'm new here and would like to discuss the combination of pumps and
blindness.

Thank you,

Rick

When this topic came up there seemed to be some chatter along with opinions
regarding the use of AIRA with a pump.  I said I would make contact with
AIRA and I did.

 

I contacted Glenn Takemoto, , Account Executive andhe told me that there has
been some mention of insulin pumps.  He told me he would be at Convention in
Vegas and he would be interested in speaking to some of the people who have
been working for us blind Diabetic pump users to get insulin pumps
accessible.

 

If anyone is interested in making contact while at Convention, please send
me a note off list and I will send you my conversation with him.

 

Joyce
