Diabetes Oh Diabetes....

  Hey everyone! How's everyone doing so far. Me not too good not too bad! I know I know I haven't been here for too long! My apologies been busy with work and trying to do the best on managing my damn Diabetes. That's all I can do right?? But anyway! Lets get on to what I came here for.

  Oh goodness gracious!! The last past few days has been stupid and crazy! Why you may ask?? Is because while I've been nosy on my facebook page, I've read and noticed that sometime yesterday a family lost their 10yr old daughter while she was at a sleep over with a friend. During the night I am guessing her blood sugar went too low that she was unresponsive by the next morning. With some brain damange. I can only imagine how the family is feeling at the moment for their lost of their baby girl. It is sad that many people are losing the battle against diabetes. Because their blood sugar may drop too low to a critical condition or it could sky rocket too high that in both cases the person or the child does not ever wake up or is just to the point of getting there to the point of no return. Other cases is that most cases than not a Diabetic specially a Type 1 is not able to afford their life support (insulin) which is not okay at all. Here in the United States the damn fucking prices are skyrocketing that we are not able to afford out life support that keeps us alive for the next few days until we can figure out how we are able to afford the next moths supply of our life support. I don't think is fair for no one that has Type 1 Diabetes including my self that we are not able to afford the medication that keeps us alive, our life fucking support until the next "five years" they wont discover a fucking cure for this shit. It isn't fair that they Big Pharma just keeps raising the fucking prices and they make money of us that need that life support drug that keep us alive. How is that any fair for any of us that can barely afford that shit. Any one tell me please how is that fair that while Big Pharma makes money off insulin we Diabetics are losing our life because we cant afford that. Makes me so fucking upset that I see many including my self that can barely afford Insulin have to die one way or another because they just decide to make money of us. They are killing us, they just don't care what happens just as long as they make the money and we lose our life because of that. It is not fair,
  How and when did it went so high on the prices from a vial of insulin from $30-$40 per vial up to $500's to the high $1,000's this is all so ridiculous!! I don't see how is that any fair. Now as a Type 1 Diabetic my self I always do the best that I can to control my blood sugar levels as much as I can. Which can be difficult at times yes, any Type 1 can tell you that. Some days are great but others aren't so great at all. Yes it is difficult but I do my best to try and control it as much as I can.

  Sorry for all this rambling I made about all of this. But this is all to crazy, with high prices on insulin the life support for every Type 1 Diabetic, and many dying for whatever reason. This is not okay at all. Just makes me wonder how many people have to lose their life doe do Diabetes complications or because we cant afford the medication we need to survive.
