Woman 'feels like a different person' after 'life-changing' fake organ

A woman claimed she "feels like a different person" after revolutionary diabetes treatment.

Hollie Clements, 28, has been given an artificial pancreas to help manage her Type 1 diabetes as part of a pilot scheme. The trainee surgeon at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital was diagnosed with the condition when she was three-years-old and described the results of the new treatment as "life-changing".

She said: "Living with Type 1 diabetes is all I’ve ever known. My older brother and I were both diagnosed at young ages, so we grew up with a lot of restrictions around what and when we could eat, activities we could do and so on."
