I am always wishing for a cure, but not really holding my breath! When I start feeling overwhelmed by diabetes, I think back to 1971 when I was diagnosed with Type 1. There were no home glucose meters ( or at least I didn't have one) so I did urine testing. That was pretty useless! In 1974 I went through a pregnancy with no home glucose meter. There were many complications, but my son (now 30) is fine. I'm grateful every day for my glucose meter but wouldn't mind if there was a cure and I didn't have to use it any more!
