A cure???

Posted Sep 12 2008 11:55am

"Stem cells taken from the blood of a few diabetes patients have "re-set" their immune systems, helping 14 out of 15 live for months and even years without insulin, researchers reported on Tuesday."

Do I have your attention? Gohereto read the whole article.

Oh my God, I'm so excited I don't know what to do. I'm trying to calm myself. I'm trying to not get ahead of myself.

But, do you know what this means? People with Type 1 diabetes have lived over a year without needing any insulin. People, not mice. Do you hear me?

They are not calling it a cure.

But, I can't help dancing around the living room and grinning like a fool.
