...than someone who doesn't have diabetes. This was was the gist of an article in today's Guardian and a statistic which caused me to spray coffee and cream over my keyboard. The whole tenor of the piece seemed design to shock and I have to wonder about the facts behind it. 26,000 limbs removed in three years? Has anyone read the piece? (I haven't found other threads so far). The paragraph about foot tests was especially shocking - if true. I'll post a link if that's helpful.
