It’s already been done in Canada and a few other countires around the world for type 1 diabetics. he problem is that since type 1 is an autoimmune diease the best they have got was a 5 year sucess rate and after that they go back to being a type 1 again.
OOPPPSSSI missed the “liver” part. The other surgeries I spoke of were repacing the islets in the pancerous.
My son, now 18 and an Eagle Scout by 16, has had type 1 diabetes since age 3. He would be euphoric to have just one year, not 5 of them, of a normal lifestyle.
