Reg-
That is interesting. As I said earlier, I was fed on formula (not sure of the
rapidity of my growth in the first year). I developed Type I Diabetes when I
was 8 years old (23 years ago). I would never let my mother read that article
though. She has enough guilt about it as it is (and there is nothing to be
done about it now except take as good care of myself as I can). On a more
personal note, Reg, I'm sure you have lots of resources, but pleas let me know
if you have any questions about raising a child with Diabetes, 'taint easy I
know.
