Cancer and Bio Detection Dogs part 1

Written by alex on Thursday, May 17th, 2012 in Diabetes.


Interview with Claire Guest, Chief Executive. Cancer and Bio-detection Dogs is a new charity that works in partnership with researchers from the Buckinghamshire Hospitals NHS Trust. We train specialist dogs to detect the odour of human diseases, including cancer and diabetes. The Charity also provides detection dogs for individuals with type 1 diabetes and poor hypoglycemic awareness. The dogs reliably identify and alert when their owner’s blood sugar drops to a level that results in a hypoglycemic episode. These episodes if left unnoticed result in a collapse, coma or even death. We are very grateful to the Kennel Club Charitable Trust for supporting our pioneering work.

The subsequent lack of insulin leads to increased blood and urine glucose. The classical symptoms are polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst), polyphagia (increased hunger), and weight loss. Type 1 diabetes is fatal unless treated with insulin. Injection is the most common method of administering insulin; insulin pumps and inhaled insulin have been available at various times. Pancreatic transplants and pancreatic islet cell transplantation have been used to treat type 1 diabetes; however, pancreatic islet cell transplantation is still viewed as experimental, although utilization of the procedure is growing. Most people who develop type 1 are otherwise healthy. Although the cause of type 1 diabetes is still not fully understood it is believed to be of immunological origin. Type 1 can be distinguished from type 2 diabetes via a C-peptide assay, which measures endogenous insulin production. Type 1 treatment must be continued indefinitely in all cases. Treatment is not intended to significantly impair normal activities, and can be done adequately if sufficient

Juvenile Diabetes: We defeated Diabetic Ketoacidosis

2007, He almost died from DKA (Diabetic Ketoacidosis). It happened at Sardis Christian Camp(SLCC),session1 & the doctors stated he wouldn’t have made it if I waited another hour (which was the exact amount of time to travel home from camp). My advice to you: DO NOT ignore the signs. NOTICE if your child goes to the restroom frequently. WATCH how they’re unable to participate in their favorite activity. NOTICE how they ONLY want water to drink (big clue–natural bodily reaction from having an outrageous glucose/sugar level). LOOK at them closely at the nailbeds, their cheeks, the eye sockets. LOOK at their back, their shoulders (any hollowing signs from losing muscle). MONITOR their weight & be aware of any weight loss. These signs are usually before the last moments of a person when they’re ready to enter a DIABETIC COMA. This is exactly what my son went through. He had all of these signs, but they came gradually (about 2 weeks). Praise God, I was with him -in the middle of nowhere @camp- & I happened to drive my car to camp. It breaks my heart to know there will be other kids going through this, but some won’t be so lucky. Parents, please please please educate yourselves and others.
