Diabetes

Education? I work in it. School boards believe PE is not important for our kids. Furthermore, diabetes is not just a fat person's disease. I know many people that inherited it genetically and they were thin. I pay plenty of taxes so FREELOADERS get everything for nothing in return. All I need is supplies and generic meds at this time. You sound like a very heartless person. I suppose you support illegal aliens getting free medical treatment in our hospitals paid for by me and you. Until someone close to you gets diabetes type 2 or 1 you have no idea what you're talking about. I suppose you never use your medical ins. for meds, or any supplies for any ongoing medical condition. My wife pays over $130.00/mo. to have me on her Blue Cross. We get nothing from Uncle Sam. Why would anyone want to pay for heallth insurance and not get to use it? it's like homeowner's insurance in S FL is getting to be. People are paying through the nose for ins. When they need to file a claim usually the hurricane deductible is so high they get nothing. Then, if they do get paid they are dropped soon there after.

I have always paid my way for everything. What's your story? Are you someone that would deny a person with a chronic illness enough care to keep working, paying taxes, and having some quality of life? Would you rather pay for the complications of diabetes? It's going to cost the US either way. I say do the right things. The school boards say ther'e no money for PE and it's not necessary for our youth. But, they'll spend a fortune on subjects like algebra. I've never used algebra since taking it 30 years ago. PE is so imp. for our youths. They are so out of shape & overweight. Their parents are no better. If you saw what they eat for breakfast alone you'd puke.

Don't blame people like me for something I didn't deserve or want. I pray for a cure to diabetes every day. How can you expect people to take responsibility for their actions when our entire govt. is made up of f--k ups? The bill i'm referencing is cruel and intended to save the greedy ins. cos. money at the expense of innocent, sick people. Did you know that a diabetic can die from getting the flu or a bad cold? Our immune systems are weak and we are suceptible to infections, cuts, and numerous other minor health conditions that could escalate to death. Now, do you think any of us like being stuck with this horrible, cronic illness? Diabetes can turn on me anytime it gets a mind to. Perhaps you could pray for us instead of talking about responsibility.

 

Doc, When was the last time you took a good look at the kids in all age groups in our public schools? Many are out of shape, overweight, and eat nothing but unheathy garbage. The school board here thinks P.E. is not needed and more money should be spent on algebra instead. What are your toughts?

 

They are trying to pass the bill. Insurance companies want to pay for less and less, but they keep raising the premiums. They are nothing more than scumbags like all other large corporations. Walmart come to mind as I write this post. They have been screwing their employees out of decent medical coverages for years. There seems to be no justice for people that are sick through no fault of their own. Not everyone is fat that gets diabetes type 2.
