Good JS> health is a gift from God. Diabetes can be expensive. I have had my insurance reduced quite a bit as of late, But have good coverage, with a heavy expense out of my pocket each month to pay for it. Even with good coverage, It staggers me, the cost of diabetic supplies. I have gone to reusing needles, Nurses say I can't, but Doc says go ahead. I have to buy my insulin in 3 month quantities, which is still expensive out of pocket, but compared to the price if I had to pay for it all, it is decent. I am on two types of insulin. Insurance covers the major portion, but each one runs over 1000.00 for a 3 month supply. This does not count test strips, syringes etc. If I had no insurance, I could not afford it. Even Now, the cost to maintain my insurance is my biggest expense, even more than my mortgage etc. But still... Keep Obamacare away from me. You are absolutely right, It is a gift from God, though so is having health problems, it does wonders for keeping You humble and thankful.
