| $500 is not nearly enough to assist someone with Type 1 diabetes for a year. My expenses are minimum $500 a MONTH with an insulin pump, which is medically necessary for me. This does not include the cost of the pump ($7000 every 5 years or so). There needs to be a big distinction between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes in this case as the needs and expenses of a Type 1 diabetic are much different and greater than for a Type 2 diabetic. These are not the same illnesses and they should not be evaluated together. | ||
