It seems so final, But then again how many surgeries have I already endured to no relief from the pain. " I want to let you know that you have many people who are giving you their full support, myself included. I have just witnessed so many miraculous results, that if I wasn't a bad diabetic already, I would be in line, myself. Having this knowledge, I can't see where you could be making the wrong decision. You are rescuing your islets cells from a premature death. The reason that there are not enough islets harvested is because there is too much time that has been wasted before getting them out. There have been dozens of people who have had this surgery. Unfortunately, they no longer need the support of this group. And, I am happy for that, though it is nice that Peg, Shirley and others do stay in touch so that others can know there is hope.
