I hear you. I've had it since 1980, and long ago decided I would have to say no to embryonic cell-based treatment.

Having said that, they've been talking about encapsulation for twenty years, so it would take more than this to get me excited anyway.

I understand and respect your decision. My hope is that if this trial is successful then a way can be found using adult stem cells. I did not realize they had been talking about encapsulation for so long; but I do believe they will beat diabetes, or at least find a much better way to treat it.
