I had "borderline" gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with my son (I am not diabetic). I just had to change my diet and it was under control. I did not have it with my second child though. This breakthrough will lead to early testing for the onset of Type 1 diabetes for my daughter and will also help research in other diseases.
The doctor that discovered this breakthrough is from Sick Kids Hospital here in Toronto and he is all over the Canadian news right now!!! He is so enthusiastic that he is crying tears of joy! You are right, this is so HUGE
