Taking on Type 1 Diabetes

[Northerner]

Every year, more than 15 thousand adults and 15 thousand children receive a life-changing diagnosis. Type 1 diabetes means careful monitoring of glucose levels, diet, and activities. From pumps to pens, medical research has developed better devices for treatment of type-one diabetes. Now, the focus is shifting toward trying to stop the disease in its earliest stages.

Hope the focus doesn't completely shift as we still need better equipment to manage this condition, looking back we have come forward in giant steps but I would still like to see further improvements made. A fine balance in dividing time and money to both types of research is called for to prevent and treat.
