[QUOTE="DiabeticDadUK, post: 1440831, member: 392566"] Some good advice here. Although, personally, I wouldn't sow the seeds of a "cure" into his head. I was diagnosed aged 8 and, pretty much, since day 1 I've been told from various avenues that a cure is in the pipeline. It's being developed and tested. It'll be in the next 2, 5, 10 years. Etc, etc. Here we are, 32 years down the line and the latest is Apple are now working on things. Until a concrete "cure" is found and put into practice, there is no cure. Given the huge profits pharma rake in from diabetes, is a cure a sensible business option for them? for Apple, it might make sense as they're not pharma. We shall see :) Of course, you should parent your child as you see best :) Just from my personal perspective I really wish that "cure" mongers would've held back and not granted me false hope as a child.
