check this out finally a breakthrough for treatment of diabetes:):):) hope you were as excited as i was:)

MELBOURNE researchers have made a breakthrough in the treatment of type-1 diabetes, successfully transplanting insulin-producing cells into a patient.
Glen Waverley mum Elaine Robinson, 54, is the first Victorian to receive the islet cell transplant giving hope to the 140,000 Australians suffering type-1 diabetes.

The procedure, conducted by staff at the St Vincent’s Hospital, took insulin-pro… Continue

Hi Kristy from Australia...thans for connecting...whereabouts in the land of Oz do you live? I'm in the great white north, south western Ontario (1 1/2 hours from Toronto), and being mid March, we're leaving behind an unusually brutal past 2 months, and FINALLY entering spring (Amen to that)...later...linda in Canada.

Kristy, good luck with the hearing aids. Are they the open kind with the battery pack behind the ear and a small tubing that goes into the ear? I had my hearing tested and there is some loss in the higher frequencies as is expected with age. I thought that with the neuropathy that I have that maybe the nerves in my ears might be effected as well. I recently saw a report that said that people with diabetes should have their hearing tested periodically, I tried the open kind and they did make a big difference but I decided to wait. They are very expensive and not covered by Medicare and my Health insurance.
