Decision Made


The above picture says it all!
After many hours of thought and consideration, we've made our decision....
HERBIE IS STAYING!
I got a call back from our CDE this afternoon and we discussed what I talked with Sherry about. She went on to tell me it was our final decision and that they stood behind us 100% in whatever we decided. I explained how upsetting it was to Kacey and how she was having a rough time. She said that if Kacey loves Herbie that much then to keep from having so much stress then we should probably keep it and then just deal with things as they come. So thats what we're going to do! We're gonna keep him and we will just hold Cozmo to their agreement to honor the warranty if something happens to him :) I must say, I do feel relieved! I hope I'm making the right decision!
BTW, the pic was taken right after I told Kacey that we were keeping Herbie. It's hard to NOT see the love she has for this little piece of equipment!

I'm so glad. I was so sorry to hear Kacey was so upset! Now you can breath easy...

You know, 4 years is a long time... Probably by then there will be another pump or two on the market that may pique Kacey's interest. She'll also be older than and may have different preferences, or want something more integrated or whatnot. Who knows what will happen w/ Dex/Animas, or Minimed by then?

And by than I mean then... Obviously.... Sigh.

I am so happy or you and Kacey. I felt returning Herbie was actually cruel. Her face says it all. I stand behind Smith's honoring Herbie's Warranty.

I know you and Kacey must both feel relieved.

And, I agree with Allison. Kacey loves Herbie so much and in 4 years who knows what pump might be out there that she'll like even better. Riley has been on his pump for 3 years now. And, in that 3 years there has been a lot of changes (for the good) in pumps.
