this was just posted. Name removed for now but I'm sure several here already know it.
I lieu of flowers, I would ask that you donate to either the American Diabetes Association or the National Kidney Foundation to honor FMB and help save the lives of those suffering from diabetes and kidney failure. |

One doctor will tell you that a number is "fine", another will tell you that it needs immediate attention and another won't even bother commenting one way or the other. When I told my doctor that a friend was taking four Metformin's per day and his AIC was 7.4, he said "That man needs to be on insulin asap". As it stands today, more than a year later, he's not using insulin. Speaking only for myself, if my mother developed Type II later in life, I'd be very concerned about Type I or Type II developing in my body, especially if I needed to draw blood daily. |

Reading that FB post by his wife was pretty gut-wrenching. He sounds like a better man than I ever was. I can't imagine what his family is going through, and I hope that they can find a way to move on.

Older adults will occasionally get diagnosed with Type II that later is reclassified as Type I. |

Also from his obit:
He was a Kansas City Chief’s fan when it wasn’t popular and from his home helped cheer the Chiefs to their first Superbowl win in his lifetime. He was a foodie often seen on Chief’s Planet. |

After a period of about 10 years of poorly-managed T2DM, the beta cells in your pancreas will continue to fail to the point where you will become insulin-dependent.
