Keep at it Grandma. It does get easyer ! They will be able to download all info on pump. Keep a diary of carb intake & what you are doing !!. For first couple of weeks i only took onboard only deffenet carbs (if such a thing ? eg tins & packets etc). Medtronics have an Easy bolus button & very easy to do a correction on a high blood ! Good luck 😉
