I agree with you. I work for a doctor and the sheer number of diabetics as people age is astounding. Talk about a way to cut the cost of insurance, cure some of the diseases that create so much demand for care due to so many other illnesses that are an offshoot of diabetes.

Yup,I hear ya.I worked in a hospital ER for 20 years and you could just about bet your bottom dollar that diabetic patients were blind....had one or more amputations...or had serious heart or kidney disease.

And far too often,they had more than one of those things.
