The diabetes community in Edmonton is applauding a move by the province that will see Alberta become the first province in Canada to fund an insulin pump program with no age restrictions.
Anyone with Type 1 diabetes ? who needs an insulin pump ? will be eligible to get one under the new program, which was announced during the 2013 provincial budget on Thursday.
?This is really the first province to actually launch a full program to all people with Type 1 diabetes, so we?re very pleased and we?re very lucky,? said Joan King with the Canadian Diabetes Association.

Seems to be a big thing across Canada at the moment 🙂
