RE: Brett out for Saturday night.
Yes in general one of the complications of diabetes is that it can take longer to heal. But if Brett has good control of his diabetes (which athletes would have to) then I'd expect that it shouldn't take any longer to heal than it does for people without diabetes.

Is this opinion based on any medical facts?
Not having a go, I've just never heard that before.
