T1D Advocate for change The Discovery That Saved Millions. Before 1921, Type 1 diabetes was a death sentence. Children would waste away, and doctors could only offer starvation diets to delay the inevitable. Then a young Canadian surgeon, Dr. Frederick Banting, and a medical student, Charles Best, decided to change that. Working in a tiny Toronto lab, they experimented on dogs and discovered a life-saving hormone from the pancreas — insulin. In 1922, a 14-year-old boy named Leonard Thompson became the first person to receive insulin. He came back from the brink of death. That moment turned type 1 diabetes from fatal to manageable, saving millions ever since. Every day is World Diabetes Day for those living it. Grateful for insulin, science, and strength
