A compelling personal account of living with diabetes from diagnosis to cure, with a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in treatment. Deb Butterfield was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of ten, in the days before blood glucose monitors. In Showdown with Diabetes she writes about the world of diabetes from within that world, telling the story of her life with diabetes, through progressive debilitation, until she was finally freed of restrictions and needles with a pancreas transplant. If you have diabetes this book will help you to know your options. For the families of people with diabetes and the medical professionals who care for them, it also offers a rare and frank insight into the life of a diabetic person beyond the day-to-day physical management of the disease. Going further than the clinical language of blood tests, diets, and insulin regimens, it shows diabetes as a force that molds a person s personality and profoundly shapes his or her life. Most important, Showdown with Diabetes is the first book about this disease to embrace the era of cures, and to urge its readers to reach beyond short-term coping strategies to find long-term solutions.
