Mike may have to destroy this village to save it.... What does that mean? my decoder ring is coming up empty. It was a quote from a US officer during the Vietnam War after a town had been bombed and destroyed killing hundreds of civilians. |

What does that mean? my decoder ring is coming up empty. It was a quote from a US officer during the Vietnam War after a town had been bombed and destroyed killing hundreds of civilians. In what is considered one of his iconic dispatches, published on 7 February 1968, Arnett wrote about the Battle of Bến Tre: "'It became necessary to destroy the town to save it,' a United States major said today. He was talking about the decision by allied commanders to bomb and shell the town regardless of civilian casualties, to rout the Vietcong."[7] The quotation was gradually altered in subsequent publications, eventually becoming the more familiar, "We had to destroy the village in order to save it."[8] The accuracy of the original quotation and its source have often been called into question. Arnett never revealed his source, except to say that it was one of four officers he interviewed that day.[8] US Army Major Phil Cannella, the senior officer present at Bến Tre, suggested that the quotation might have been a distortion of something he said to Arnett.[8] The New Republic at the time attributed the quotation to US Air Force Major Chester L. Brown.[9] In Walter Cronkite's 1971 book, Eye on the World, Arnett reasserted that the quotation was something "one American major said to me in a moment of revelation."[10] |

I believe what Al believed - “Al Mann believed in early stage T2 that Afrezza would stop the progression of the disease. He believed that T2 SOC leads to early beta cell burnout and ultimately full insulin dependence.” Then I look at forums like TUdiabetes and I feel bad for some of those people and wonder can VDex do anything to help them? With their Telehealth offering I would hope they could. Here is an example from JohnP. He first posted in 2018 asking about metoformin not working. Then a year-plus later he posts "Hey all just checking in here, I am now down to 157 in weight, I still bike alot looking now at 100 miles aweek! Sometimes I only get 70miles. But i am now on Jardiance + metformin + Trulicity and Glimapride. Crazy all these drugs! I am soon to be 50 years old, I lost my Diabetic mother in-law this year so damn sad. I use to talk with her about this diseases I feel so alone now! I have been taking the Jardiance for 2 days now and it does make you feel strange!" How many John's could Al have helped if the SoC put afrezza front and center? forum.tudiabetes.org/t/type-2-issues/72735/20 |

I don't think that's in the SoC! |

The SoC has proven year after year to be a complete and utter failure.   |

As we have discussed many times - the SoC is a treat to fail protocol. First fail on metformin, then add something else, then add some other poison and then later than sooner add a basal. Its a mess.
Hope springs eternal for VDex to change this SoC through example. It sure is not going to change by talking with the Borg.

sports - Paul Rudd dancing reminded me of myself a long time ago. It might be cool to dance differently now ... but, dancing differently before was like  What are you doing? !!! Then a year later it would be in. Go figure? So now I rarely dance because I am emotionally scarred. Ha! But, that's mytakeonit |
