Parkinsons and Diabetes Type One:  Having been diagnosed over two years ago with Parkinsons and with a beautiful granddaughter, age 10, who was diagnosed at 1.5 years old with Juvenile Diabees, my focus and prayers are that a permanent cure is found for both of us.  She is now using the insulin pump, a significant technical improvement in insulin delivery vs the "shots" twice per day or more.  I am very encouraged with the position that Senator Orrin Hatch recently took per the NY Times article on May 2nd   http://www.nytimes.com/2002/05/02/opinion/_02THU1.html regarding his support for "regenerative medicine".  6:32:05 AM
