Some pretty amazing stuff happening for people with Type 1 Diabetes

From insulin in pill form to artifical pancreas efforts...

Even though the former is still a ways away and the latter is no cure, it gives me hope that we may see a cure in my lifetime, and that my daughter's quality of life can be decent.

For the ongoing effort against this terrible disease, tonight, I'll open a beer and drink to science and the dedication of those in diabetes R&D...again -- rock on all!
