Default Edmonton Protocol....a cure?

Greetings all!

My name is Paul and I was diagnosed type 1 last week; still can't believe it. However, today I read about something called the "Edmonton Protocol," which finished a round of successful clinical trials at U of Alberta and may be a cure for us type 1's. It transplants islet cells in the pancreas, and also has successful anti-rejection. I think one of the Drs was named Shapiro.

Has anyone else heard of this?
