Great stuff. Hope it makes your lives easier. Does this mean with the pump you can eat more of what you want when you want as long as you just release the insulin? Is that basically what it's for?

Does the pump have a feedback loop so that if he eats a lot of sugar insulin is released or is it more of a fixed flow.

there is a fixed flow (basal rate) that is steadily being released. When he eats we program the pump to give him extra insulin (bolus.) There isnt anything out there right now that can sense blood sugar and then adjust for highs or lows. I am sure there will be at some point though.
