Hi, my father has had type 1 diabetes for over 50 years. He is currently 79 and was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's. I'm concerned that he will soon lose the ability to monitor his blood sugar levels and administer his insulin. Is there any technology available that can measure blood sugar levels and administer appropriate levels of insulin automatically? Has anyone had experience of diabetes and Alzheimer's?
