Yikes! Just a quick follow up to my original comment... After reading a lot of the replies I realized I have never actually given serious thought to what it would be like to have diabetes. Sure I shared my little anecdote, but I’m currently a reasonably healthy (read: lucky) person who doesn’t have to grapple with any illnesses. Given that, it was quite improper for me to share my thoughts about how I would respond to an interesting development in medicine like this. So, thanks to all the thoughtful replies to the parent, they were very eye opening.
