Encapsulation/JDRF

The thought of having beta-cells encapsulated and inserted into my body is mind blowing. The JDRF is attempting to get this project started this year. Every time I read about the possibility of being free of doing blood tests, keeping track of food and the overall stress that T1Ds brings to myself along with my family, I break down into tears. 

I need to figure out how one gets selected for these trials. I would sign up in a second. If this could work, my life along with some many others would be so different. It would be a new life.

It would probably be a weird adjustment at first, but I am sure I could get used to it. I have tried to let T1Ds not hold me down, but it has. Being free of devices aka my man purse, free of carrying food everywhere, and free of stressing over blood sugars. This would be priceless. 

This needs to happen. The JDRF needs our support. Please remember T1Ds is an autoimmune disease not due to choices. I didn't eat too many cookies.
