Diabetes Bubble / Diabetes Bubble Burst

Links to graphics detailing the problem and the proposed solutions:

The Problem?

Name changes for old outdated diabetes
and diabetic words are desperately needed
to eliminate the confusion and misleading
that transpires when those words are used
without clarifier, which often happens.

The following graphic depicts the way in
which those two words dominate the des-
criptions of the conditions in small print in
the center, oft-times without clarifying which
condition is being described.

How can you tell which of the disparate con-
ditions is being referred to when the exact
name for the condition is left off?

Oft-times, you can't, and you can only guess
at what's actually being referred to, lending
itself to confusion, misleading, and misinform-
ing due to the anachronistic, outdated, and
unreliable nature of the entire diabetes / dia-
betic nomenclature:

Another graphic detailing the problem and
proposed solutions:

Link to complete proposal:
https://prohuman.net/diabetesbubblediabetesbubbleburst.htm

Petition organizations who can promote new
superior clarifying names to replace outdated
anachronistic diabetes / diabetic terms, and in
so doing, eliminate diabetes / diabetic confu-
sion / misleading by supporting the new superior
clarifying names.

By the way, I've had Islit (Insulinitis - near-total
to total loss of endogenous insulin) for over 60
years, since I got it at age 5 in March 1961, and
have a vested interest in eliminating diabetes /
diabetic confusion / misleading caused by those
terms being used all-too-often without critical
clarifier.
