Growing up, my family always told me to be careful with my sugar because my grandpa had diabetes (it was type one), and my family would scare me with it so I wouldn't eat too much sugar... I've also seen comments where doctors said they would rather have HIV than diabetes. I mean, damn. I wouldn't want either, but after reading this, shoot.

This is horrible. I hate how expensive everything is, but this is downright wrong. Nobody should have to pick between rent and life-saving medicine. I am grateful for insurance (it's also a scam), but for those who don't have it or can't afford it, it's so sad and unfair. Have you ever been in a situation where you had to pick between your medicine and something else?
