Landon's Pump!

Landon got a pump on Tuesday Nov. 17, and we practiced with saline instead of insulin. Then yesterday, Nov. 19, the nurse came over and we put in insulin. So for now it is official! The nurse said that with kids Landons age we may be switching back and forth because he may decide he doesn't like it. But for now he is doing the pump . I made him a sling type bag to hold his pump under his clothes. I used to pant pockets and a srip of leather for the strap. I also made a stretchy band with a pocket for him to wear on his leg under his clothes. He can then stick the pump inthe pocket and then put on his pants. Hopefully he will like one or the other because I think it will make wearing the pump a lot easier.
This is the pocket sling I made.

Here is the stretchy band thing I sewed.
This is the inset.

Here his the inset from the side so you can see the cannula that goes into his skin and distributes the insulin.

Here Landon is wearing the inset.

Here is a sideway picture of him wearing his pump.
