    I lost my job 2 years ago. I could not afford my health benefits. I did manager to finally find a job but I have had to declare bankruptcy because I used my credit cards to pay for my insurance. Many people are not aware of the cost of health benefits when one has an existing illness I would like to win this contest because it would enable me to start rebuilding again. I have been a type 1 diabetic since I was six. My illness has been a great experience in teaching me to adapt and rebuild.

    You have a great educational website for
    diabetics! Thank You for that. This is my
    twelfth year of teaching my children at home.
    I have five. Without State insurance now,
    I've been out of diabetic medication for
    two weeks. I am suppose to test at least
    five to six times a day, when you can't get
    any help at all to have, including test strips,
    things get pretty bad. I must take Byetta,
    Levimir, metformin,glimipiride, also Lyrica for
    diabetic nerve pain, not including supplies to
    go with these. With my husbands job we cannot
    afford health insurance. I know of people that
    are in worst conditions than myself, and may
    God Bless those to win what they deserve.

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 2 years ago. She is a bright wonderful young woman who will be starting Nursing school next week. I had back surgery last year and will be returning to full time work myself as an RN and she will be on my insurance. Cori just started on the pump one month ago and is doing very well She must test her glucose frequently while adjusting to the pump. A year of free test strips would be a substantial savings for me and give me peace of mind while she is away at school. Thank you.

I also have just had a quadruple by-pass in January 2007, 1 week after coming back from Florida vacation as well as a total of 4 heart attacks, 2 of them being silent. Diabetes has always been a major challenge for me to try to keep in control. Was always very brittle. My A1C is never where it's supposed to be has always been under 5.

    Hi, my name is Susan Hatfield, I was just recently diagnosed with Diabetes Type 2 last month, 7/17/08. Its been quite an uphill journey since then getting used to testing my sugar and having to cut out alot of foods I was used to eating, but hopefully I will get used to it sooner or later. When they told me I was diabetic, I sort of expected cause my dad was diabetic tpye 2 and then resorted to using insulin, thank heavens I havent reached that far yet. Well I sure could use a years supply of test strips, they are the most expensive part to buy and its just my husband working because I dont work due to a lower back problem, so this diabetes has really put a toll on us. Well thank you and hope you pick me.

    I have been a type 1 Diabetic for 38 years. My insurance no longer covers for the Ultra One Touch test strips. They no longer cover for any One Touch test strips. They are very costly. I like the Ultra One Touch Machine because it is very accurate when I go to the doctor and have my blood drawn I compare my results on my machine with the lab results there is not a big difference . I have used other machines and compare my results to the One Touch and there is a big difference in the results.

    I test at least 4 times a day on my One Touch Ultra and sure could use some free strips. Man, these things are expensive. The good part is, it takes just a smidgen of blood - not like some other brands! I have 4 meters so I'm never without one, just in case. I have two Ultra Smarts, one Ultra and 1 Mini! I keep one in my desk, one at home, one in my "spare" purse that goes everywhere I go - and one at my Mom's since I go there so much to help take care of her (she's 89).

    I am a juvenile diabetic that would love to win a year's worth of test strips. Although I do check my blood sugar ten times a day, this would help me a great deal in savings. Diabetes is an expensive disease.

    I have been a juvenile diabetic for over twenty years, I am not hoping for myself but for the young kids that they find a cure for this disease. It is so sad that children have to live with this. My aunt, my mother had juvenile diabetes also. My aunt died before they had insulin, my mother was born after she died and came down with juvenile diabetes also at the same age my aunt did. I had a two percent chance of getting this disease, and yes I did get juvenile diabetes. The most important thing I want to change is people's mind. They Still Hold it against you for having this disease. How sad.
