Reply #25: LOL. I am a diabetic. I guess I should stay at home and never come out for fear

that if something really bad happened to me the costs in the hospital would be really, really high. I have health care through my husband but there was a point where we both had nothing, after college. We have been there. I get it. Even with health insurance the costs to treat my disease suck. The medication has consistently gone up the last 5 years since I was diagnosed. The problem is I still don't see what taking out his kids for ice cream has to do with pushing for the kind of health care you specifically would want. We are hardly wealthy and last time we went to DQ it was like $6.00 to treat our kids to some dairy treats. We would do that at least once a summer regardless if we had health insurance or not. Kids need to have some kind of fun in their childhood. I suppose next you will say that I should never ever let my kids have any kind of treat because I have diabetes so they will get it too. Welcome to the fun police.
