This is hilarious— first of all I was a single parent ( divorced ) of a type 1 diabetic child starting in 1987– no insurance ( had with ex’s but company would no longer cover) paid cash to get kid out of hospital— cash for insulin, syringes, test strips— everything ( humalin insulin was $10/vial back then and my kid took regular and longer lasting) I hawked a lot of free lance art- t shirt designs and craft shows on top of a full time job ( never occurred to me to apply for food stamps or anything) — moved to big city and pediatrician hooked us up with med school endocrinologist who hooked us up with state funded critically ill etc children— he’s in his mid 40’s now and insulin ( through Obama soared to $850/ vial - down with Trump back up again) is ridiculous— can’t live without it - he’s a grown man over 6’ uses a lot cause of his size. His A1C are great and having Covid was a bad cold/ mild flu— thankfully he and spouse have great jobs and insurance or this would be a train wreck- although I guarantee if you are welfare it’s free - if you were middle class like we were when he was 11 it’d be a disaster
Sorry you and your son had to deal with that, but I'm glad you were smart enough and creative enough to find ways to pay. This biden guy burns me up with his lies.
Well..he reversed Trumps law that made insulin cheaper. I guess he forgot. Ya know, with dementia and all.

Hey no biggie— you deal with what life gives you! God helps those who help themselves— builds character— awrooo!
