First, I want to thank all 2300 supporters of this petition for adding your name. Currently BC funds insulin pumps for those age 25 and under, but after that, they are on their own. How do you tell somebody that has had success with an insulin pump while growing up that they can no longer use one if they cant afford the $7000.00 price tag all the while knowing that insulin pumps will create a net profit within our health care system with fewer hospitalizations, fewer complications from diabetes and overall health and productivity for those that use them. With World Diabetes Day fast approaching on November 14th, I would like to see if we can reach 2500 signatures. We are currently 200 short of that goal. So please, share this petition with your friends and family and ask them to support it as well. And thank you again for adding your name.
