With the amount of money I spend on #T1D every year I could afford to buy 12+ gaming systems.
And that doesn’t include the 10k I spent on my broken thumb due to a low. 🙃

How about a damn *refund* from Eli Lilly for the $324,000 I’ve spent on insulin in the last 30 years staying alive. You could have dropped the price anytime you vultures. #Insulin4all #t1d yes it should be free. Miss me with your libertarian bs - this is why we have a society.

@ivan when insulin costs $10 a bottle but sells for $300, o reserve the right to call that corporate greed. When they decide to lower the price to $35 (because they totally can) but then call this lowering a “market growth opportunity” that’s greed. It’s also capitalism. The problem is both, but 300-400% markup is just selfish. #Insulin4All

So #EliLilly was able to magically drop the price of #Humalog from $274 to $66. This proves the cost of #insulin was never about recouping costs; rather, it was pure greed. This company saw the writing on the wall because so many spoke out and didn’t stop speaking. #Insulin4all

Only takeaway for me on this $35 insulin story is that the price was high for no reason other than corporate greed. Insulin was always supposed to be free. “Insulin belongs to the world, not to me.” - Banting, inventor of insulin #Insulin4All

This article describes one of my biggest concerns with the #TwitterMigration. Can #Mastodon replicate this type of advocacy and public awareness? I certainly hope it can but it will only happen if enough media and general users make their way here.

For my birthday, I’m raising funds for Insulin For Life USA, with a fun twist: for every donation of $20 or more, I’ll record a karaoke video of any song you want, no matter how embarrassing!
As a #Type1 #diabetic, this cause means a lot to me. IFL-USA gives #insulin and supplies to people with #Diabetes who can’t afford the outrageous prices. So help me support a great cause while humiliating myself on social media! #insulin4all #t1d
Please BOOST to spread the word! https://www.every.org/ifl-usa/f/franks-birthday-fundraiser

@asep @denvergail yes, the #DOC was particularly active on Twitter and I’m really hoping more DOC folks migrate over and connect. It’s a teeny bit harder to find one another on Mastodon, but as long as we used the right hashtags it should come together. #T1D #T2D #DOC #WeAreNotWaiting #Insulin4All
