We are fortunate to have very good insurance. Without insulin her life expectancy is about 2 weeks. The precariousness of her situation was highlighted during a vacation we took 4 or 5 years ago. While waiting for our order at a restaurant a vial of insulin rolled off the table and fell to the floor. The crack spilled at least half the vial.

She wasn't due to get another vial for at least a few weeks as I recall. Being out of town (and out of state over a weekend) we were far away from our regular pharmacy. Luckily, I was able to secure the crack and seal the vial well enough to last the weekend. Cash replacement, if we could get a hold of the prescribing physician on a Sunday was going to be about $250 to $300 for the one vial. Would we pay it? You bet. She can't live without it.

That night I found insulin vial cozies online. They insulate and protect from falls! A must have, cheap insurance.

The history of insulin is worth looking up. Discovered and developed in Canada it was intended to be cheaply available and a gift to humanity. Worthy of the Nobel prize awarded to the researchers.

More recent insulin developments out of Canada:

Note the dates on the articles. Sounds extremely promising, 10+ years ago! The entire world's supply could be produced on a relatively small amount of agricultural land. Yet, the price of insulin in the US has skyrocketed in recent years.

The pharmaceutical industry? Well sigh nothing but profanity for them.
