I would like to offer my deepest condolences to Dr.Sarah´s community and family. I just watched her Ted talk yesterday and was touched by her humanity and care. I was therefore so surprised to learn that such a beautiful and young doctor is no longer here to share her important knowledge and offer her caring advice to millions of diabetics who need her help. RIP Dr Sarah you are deeply missed by millions of people you have touched.

Dr. Sarah changed our lives as a family. Thank you, Dr. Sarah, for being a true champion. You are missed.

Thanks to his carbohydrate-restricted diet, he was able to attend and cheer at virtually every sporting event his beloved grandkids participated in - without having to lug around suitcases of insulin or worry about a potentially deadly...
