has anyone else given your infusion pump a name? I have the infinity pump for tube feeds, and when it beeps at me I can go, “SHUT UP SUSAN!”

      It’s really nice to see someone else on here w/a feeding tube, btw. I think a few months back I asked a question to the community wondering if anyone else here has a feeding tube. Unfortunately I didn’t get much feedback, but will likely become more common as this community grows.
