I don't know if diabetics (especially those who cannot afford costly treatment without
income support benefits) would consider it great news to know that it is now possible to transfer the islet-cell from a donor's body to the diabetic patient. But I do know that the process can get icky, since there's always the possibility that the diabetic will reject the beta-cell that is transplanted to his body. This can only occur if the diabetic patient does not undergo follow-up treatment, which usually takes months after the first transplant operation.
