Decision for the next insulin pump

​Hello diabetes world
Making the decision for what we choose for our insulin pump?
The decision is never easy to choose,
Looking at the algorithm and how much insulin shall run loose.

There are the calculations 
And it’s not about the BMI ratio;
Even if it comes as disguised as a high pitched radio.

For me it has to be light and easy to manage,
And untangling the cannula from the waist high,
This device needs practicality without the element of a surprise. 

So thank you medical team for being a great support,
Especially for the DAFNE principles which I’ve eventually been taught, 
So prayers will find a cure one day
And that hypos and hypers shall permanently stay away.

So do I go for the Omnipod 5, Dana 1 or Ypso pumps? 
Difficult decisions we with type 1 and 2 we need to make,
Yet I thank the team at Kings for funding the device we choose to take.

“For the team at Kings college (Venetian building)”
