Well, my comments on this are a little different, and you'll understand why.
I've been an insulin dependant diabetic for the last 13 years. Every day for the past 13 years, (that's 4813 days). I've had to take 2 needles everyday for all those days (that's 9626 needles!)
On top of those 9626 needles, I've had numerous blood work done, and had to test my blood sugar by pricking my fingers and drawing blood. I have to avoid eating sugar, watch my diet like a hawk. I can't skip meals, I can't stay out really late at night and sleep in (have to get up and take that needle then eat breakfast!).
And even though I've gone through all that, I still have to look forward to blindness, amputations, heart attacks, stroke, comas, kidney disease and
even more needles.
Cloning brings promise of a cure for diabetes. It brings with it the hope that I will not have to take more needles or face the many complications. And I'm not alone, thousands (actually hundreds of thousands) of people are diabetic. Men, women, people from all walks of life, but the worst is the children. I was there, I know, it is hard. No Child deserves to go through diabetes.
So howwever evil you may think cloning is, it is a hope to cure my disease, remove the weight from my shoulders.
I support cloning in every way, for MEDICAL RESEARCH.
Most of you won't understand, but that's ok, you don't have this disease, or it's complications.
