Welcome. This is a very good place to ask your questions. Quite a few people with diabetes are reagular readers/posters here and I'm sure some of them will reply.
I'll start you out with some good links to old posts:

After reading the threads SueM linked for you, feel free to e-mail me if you have any other questions. I've been on a pump for 15+ years & am always willing to share.

Enjoy your trip!

DWfan, I don't really understand your question. I've been to WDW about 15 times on a pump now, so feel free to ask some questions. I'm just not sure what you're asking. There is first aid available in each park, but I have never needed it.
