I actually purchase strips from people who have extras and don't use them and re-sell to those who cannot afford them due to the fact that they have no insurance and I also donate to diabetic organizations. They help out those in need! This is a wonderful post!

However, what I'm sharing here is my personal experience, and I have admitted that I am lucky that I've never have had to worry. I care ALL who don't have access to the supplies they need, regardless of what country they live in.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853213615426205881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773372806308930207.post-18483988540661703762016-07-18T12:19:49.764-04:002016-07-18T12:19:49.764-04:00Yes you are lucky to have your meds as I am.

Between gas, parking, office copay, script copay. People with fixed income and health insurance sometimes go with out. Because they can't cover the cost of getting there.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07977845522874863961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773372806308930207.post-77229871505231102612016-06-22T02:54:59.724-04:002016-06-22T02:54:59.724-04:00Thanks so much for writing this and spreading the ...Thanks so much for writing this and spreading the word! :)Elizabeth Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14227938699466161879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773372806308930207.post-13062166411044006902016-06-21T05:56:12.540-04:002016-06-21T05:56:12.540-04:00I think about this all the time.

When I start to complain about the cost, I should be thankful that I am in a country with health insurance and my two children with diabetes do not go without what they need. I read about a country recently where the mortality rate was extremely high due to no insulin. So sad.
