When Bob Krause turned 90 last week, it was by virtue of an unflagging determination and a mentality of precision that kept his body humming after being diagnosed with diabetes as a boy.
A leading diabetes research center named the San Diego resident the first American known to live 85 years with the disease, a life that has paralleled ? and benefited from ? the evolution in treatment.
Krause's wife of 56 years, his family and friends were to celebrate his longevity Sunday with a party and a medal from the Joslin Diabetes Center to commemorate his 85-year milestone.
