My Cozmo Diabetes365 Day 22
This last week started with the arrival of my newest diabetes gadget, a Cozmo insulin pump.
I got it while at my office on Monday afternoon and opened the box to take a peek at it. But I didn't completely unpack it until I got home that evening. After dinner I headed off to a quiet spot and spent an hour or so programming it and 'plugging' it in.
I've already video taped the little guy once, when showing how to do a super bolus. I plan to do more videos in the future to show off some of the features that I really like on this pump. And now that I've done a second infusion set change and been wearing him for a week, living with him is pretty easy.
So the only thing left to do I suppose is to give him a name. I mean, I'll be living with this little guy for the next four years. I can't keep calling him 'my pump'.
Apart from toys, normally we only name cars in our family. (For example, Man the Van named after our favorite singer Van the man.) So I'm having trouble thinking about the right name.
Maybe you can all help me. I know some of you have named your pump. How have you gone about choosing the right name and what is it? Did having a name help in living with and using your pump?
Confession Time
My intentions were good. I signed up for NaBloPoMo, and I'm planning to write a post per day for the month of November. But yesterday I dropped the ball and missed posting. I can't believe it and I'm hoping the NaBloPoMo police don't go too hard on me.
I even started a long post on Symlin and how to use it. Maybe it was too long, because it's in my draft bin right now. I guess I've learned one lesson, keep them short and leave the long ones for a second post. Especially on the weekend.

I think NaBlPoMo Police forgive you or turn a blind eye. :)
It's funny, I'm looking for a name for my kitten--if you help me name the kitten by voting, I'll help you with your pump! :)
Also, quick question: One of my 365 project photos never posted to the group b/c of the 7photos/week limit (and I had started photographing but decided to commit after a week of photographing, so my first posts needed 8 days worth, but only let me have 7, so even though I'm on day 32, I only have 31 photos in the group pool.
Can you override this for me for one week so I can post day 9?
Ian has a volcano black pump too and refused to name it. However, someone suggested a fitting name might be Kramer - get it? cozmo kramer and his racial slurs? I know, soooo totally not PC.
Bernard, you must take a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o56JZ-k7ODo
Of course, both Bob and Van do not look their best, but, we are all getting older..........
Enjoy your new pump.
Hey Bernard,
Did you hear that the Cozmo 1800 extension for the Copilot software is now available?
Contact your rep for more info.
Cheers,
J.B.
