CHRISTINE Verrinder lived with diabetes and its complications for almost 60 years ? and her son, Mark, believes there is still too much ignorance about the potentially devastating long-term effects.
Newport-born Mrs Verrinder, who lived in Rogerstone, died at the Royal Gwent Hospital in March, aged 65.
For many years she had been cared for by her husband, Michael, and was also coping with a catalogue of other health problems.
?Mum was a strong character and battled many illnesses related to her diabetes,? said Mr Verrinder.
