Hillis Motor Group Ted Ryder Cup Day 24.12.18

On July 10, 1922, five-year-old Teddy Ryder was among the first diabetics to receive insulin. He immediately began to add weight to his ravaged and tired little body. Ryder and Dr. Banting formed an immediate bond, one that would last his lifetime through an exchange of visits and letters. In 1990 Ryder returns to Toronto as one of the longest-living users of insulin. In this CBC Television report, he attends an exhibit on Dr. Charles Best and describes his long and full life.
