Frustrated Mom-

I can't even imagine what you're going through. My mother went through the same thing when I was diagnosed in college, however I don't think she really understood the severity of diabetes because I didn't grow up with it/wasn't around her.

Your post brings up a really good point that I have been wrestling with: Originally, one of the categories of this forum was going to be "D Tips & D Tricks" in which I would encourage users to share tactics of getting insurance coverage, ways to trade unused medication or test strips, etc. however I thought that the legal ramifications would be too severe. It would be great if there was some kind of community that could address some of these real life issues.
