Thank you for the link, I finally had my curiosity sated as
to why diabetics lose their feet and lower limbs. I wondered.
A sad fact indeed. Never thought to be coarse enough to ask one.
I'm hyperglycemic myself but not a diabetic yet.
Hope I don't become one.

Same here, but I loved the rest of your email.  But then I AM considered
weird.
