My neighbor who is a Type 1 and takes 4 shots a day, told me the other day:

"Melody, my doctor just told me they are going to market a once a week insulin shot". I said 'when??" and he said "It's coming out in 2009".

I am extremely impressed if this is true.

I googled "once a week insulin injection", and sure enought, this came up, I clicked on it and here's the site. Now I do not know if this is what he was referring to, but I thought I would share!!

Let me know if you've heard anything about this.
