To all the people who say, "At least you don't have cancer."

To all the people who say, "At least you don't have cancer."

A Friends Mother:

So what do you want to do when you leave school.

Me:

I want to be a teacher or a diabetes educator.

A Friends Mother:

Why a diabetes educator?

Me:

I have diabetes.

A Friends Mother:

Wow that must be hard.

Me:

Yeah it is...

A Friends Mother:

You know I had a friend whose son got a brain tumour. He recovered, was in remission and the cancer is completely gone. 6 months later her daughter got diabetes and you what my friend said to me? She said it was worse for her daughter living with diabetes then it was for her son getting cancer.

*And that what people don't understand, that diabetes is a life sentence. We don't have the option of remission or definitive answer. There is no cure. We don't have peace of mind. Our battle is never ending.

#Diabeticprobs

.....a cure?

So... this seams crazy.... but... what do you think?

Regenerative Cellular Therapy is using proteins and peptides specifically for the pancreas to normalize the immune system. The proteins and peptides we use cause the islet of Langerhans and beta cells to return to their normal function. As the islet of Langerhans and beta cells begin to function normally they start the production of insulin and or higher quality insulin. When this process is completed the organ begins functioning normally, and the patient recovers their health.

I don't know. Here's the link to the page and the video.. its really sketchy....

Let me know what you think!

Knowing the costs.

Did you know that most people with type one have annual medical costs of around $11 THOUSAND while the normal not diabetic will have around $2-3 thousand

BS. 

Does any one else think it's BS that we pay an extra $8 thousand a year. 

BS. 

Hate pricking your finger?

So this smart guy just created this thing that you test with saliva, not blood.........
