[QUOTE="Grant_Vicat, post: 2168130, member: 388932"] Hi [USER=516788]@Emertype1[/USER] I was diagnosed Type 1 in 1959 at 11 months, 5 day coma in 1966, passing protein in urine from 1973 - 2013, several laser treatments to both eyes from 1979 - 1983, kidney/pancreas transplant in 2013. Yet in 1971 I was told I might make it to 20. An actuary at the headquarters of the Prudential told my father that I might make it to 40. Thank God I ignored them as I am now 61 and still going strong. Had another good transplant MOT today. As the saying goes, seize the day! Good luck in your life! [/QUOTE]
