My mother and my uncle have had Type 1 diabetes since they were very small around 10yrs i think. My uncle, 37, is completely blind from this and is currently on dialysis. My mom 40 is very brittle, she wears braces on her legs, she is rapidly losing her vision, her kidneys and her mobility. They are both also having alzehimer's symptoms. Is this common among T1 Diabetics?Are there currently any treatments besides insulin that they can try, even if it is outside of the US? I am willing to try anything. Also, I was wondering how long can they hold on after they get to this point. I dont think that my mom can make it through dialysis. Please help me with this, I dont want to see them suffer anymore they are so young. Thanks
