My grandfather was recently diagnosed with cancer and was given 6 months. He is diabetic and has a lot of pain. He does not have insurance and has not yet been approved for disability coverage. He cannot afford to check his blood sugar, can't afford the insulin, and can't afford any of his other medications. Our medical coverage in this country is very sad... we do not take care of our own people. Therefore I am trying to find him all the help I can. But what makes me feel even worse is I am a nurse.... and i still can't get him what he needs... We need to figure out how to care for our citizens and get them the help they need!!
