    I am a Type 2 Diabetic and take 4 shots a day for the rest of my life. So do the math and most of my FSA goes to insulin. And because of the advancing of my diabetes it is getting harder on me to keep working 50 to 60 hours per week just to pay for my insulin. Thank you

    My basic human right to live should not be mandated by financial benefit. Every day I am thankful to live in a world in which insulin exists -- lower insulin costs so every diabetic has an equal opportunity to life.

    My 10 year old daughter has Type 1 Diabetes and it's ridiculously expensive to keep her alive. Insulin is a necessity for her. We need a change.

    I struggle to afford the life giving insulin I take each day while pharmaceutical CEOs take home billion dollar bonuses and insurance companies charge higher and higher premiums while covering less and less. Only in America would profits and bottom lines outweigh the health and well being of hard working citizens.

    Why are profits and business more important than human life?

    Insulin costs are outrageous. Without Insulin my Type I daughter will die. Insurance premiums, Insulin, test strips, Insulin Pump, Glucose Monitors, doctor visits, lab tests. The cost of staying alive with Type I diabetes should not bankrupt patients and families. The complications of not taking control of this disease are debilitating. What are patients and families to do ? We need help!! We need people to stand up for our children !! Stop the rising costs of these life sustaining medications!!

    I am T1D. Affordable healthcare isn't affordable. 300-450 per month. I work and do not get any government help. I am 30yrd male and have been T1D for 6yrs. That's over 6000 injections. Walk in my shoes.

    My 6 year old son has Type 1 Diabetes. He was diagnosed at age 1. Insulin is not a choice; without it he will not survive. Without the proper amounts, he faces the realities of life-threatening or life-shortening complications. Everyone with diabetes deserves affordable access to insulin. Patients, along with their doctors, should have the right to choose which insulin works best for them. Access to insulin isn't just health care; it is life support. Thank you for your consideration of this petition!

    We didn't ask for this disease and we could have be dine nothing to stop it. We rely on this precious liquid to live. We never get a vacation from this disease. It's 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year. Help lessen or burden.
