MD2,
I realize that I'm not going to change the world by this. Just trying to do a li'l something for a cure. I sincerely would love to see your idea evolve.
I can't speculate as to why allegedly the top researchers who would represent islet xenotransplantation were not even invited to this forum. A slew of letters from the 'common folk' telling the NIH that we want xeno as a cure might at least bring to their attention that we exist.
The letters could also question the lack of representation by our researchers. Of course we don't know the reason as of yet why the will not attend.
Gotta run, Trevor has to get to pre-school..
